Training video for CNA testable skill Assist With Use of Bedpan for the state of Texas.
Passed my cna exam yesterday. I had pulse, bedpan ,catheter care ,and assist to ambulate with belt. It got rescheduled 3 times but it was good because I just found your videos and I watched them soooo many times leading up to my exam day. I 10000% wouldn’t have passed without them. You pointing out the bold steps that you absolutely can’t miss really saved my ass lol. Thank you 🙏

Hi Ms. Julie! Thanks for your videos, It’s very helpful and informative. I was watching your video everyday. I just enrolled for CNA and my class will start on October 21. I was kinda nervous for the state exam that’s why I started watching your videos so I could familiarized with the steps, tips and everything before I even started my school. I’m from Philippines and just got here in NY 3 months ago. God bless you Ms. Julie, your a big help with us who aspire to become a Certified Nursing Assistant. I’m glad I found your channel. 😘

All thank to you Mrs. Julie!! Thank you thank you thank you!! I hope one day to be a cna instructor just like you!!! Also I had one question, I saw ur name badge and it said LVN in another video, can LVN's teach CNA courses? If so that might be the avenue I go down because I would love to teach nursing. Thank you Mrs. Julie, ur a god send!

hi Ma'am. thank you so so much for sharing these videos. I have actually not enrolled in any school as of now. however, I want to have a pre-knowledge and understanding of the CNAs written aspects and as well as the skills test well enough before enrolling ASAP. Finding your videos has been a great help for me, and I am optimistic that I can eventually be a CNA by December and January 2018. But while in my course, I will be relying on your skills test videos for home practices. thank you Ma'am.
You are most welcome. Let me know how it turns out. Good Luck!!!

Thank you so much nurse jar your videos and God mercy help me pass my state exam 🙏🏻
Hi, Rukaya! CONGRATULATIONS 👏 🎊 💐 🥳!!!
This is very helpful but how I wish that they move the instruction somewhere as it was covering the entire procedure. I could not see how she place the bedpan under the buttocks.
Sorry, to hear that the boxes covered the actual procedure. To correctly place the bedpan, you need to ensure that the narrow end is facing the foot board and the wider end of the bedpan is facing the head board.
Ms .Julie you forgot to raise the side rails when you say you are going to clean up the bed pan.
Hi, Wheng! Thank you for your comment. However, I did not forget to raise the side rail, as I did not need to do so because I did not turn the client. Instead, I had the client to raise her hips to place the bedpan.
I agree about the instructions. the instructions for "during the procedure" was completely covering the resident, and it was difficult to follow. this instruction could have been placed to the far left of the video, as it was a blank space.
Hi Julie, thank you SO much for making such awesome videos! I am studying to take my CNA exam soon and I am very nervous but these videos are helping so much! I have a question, when you are gathering your bed pan do you need to wear gloves? Also do you have to place a barrier on the bedside table before you put the bedpan on it?
ok thank you. I really want to pass the first time
the word box is right over the middle of the screen, completely covering the areas we need to see.
I'm always wondering when do you clean the patient- before removing the pan or after
That part is almost omitted
If a resident has to use the bathroom, they do not want to hear all of that. One, If call light is on: You ask the client what can you help her with. 2nd If the nurse said the client needs to use the bed pan, You should come in and introduce yourself quickly letting her/him know that you are aware that they need to use the bathroom.
Wash your hands
apply gloves
grab the bed pan
Let the client know you. are raising the bed in so that you don t kill your back
Ask the client to assist you in turning to the side where they can grab the bed rail
place the bedpan measuring right at the two dimples of the back
have the client turn over on the bed pan
If it is a woman then ask her to open her legs unless you are going to have a mess
Take your gloves off
Put the head of the bed up a little to make it easer to pee
Give Call light '
Wash your hands
Leave the room for Privacy
Your video is one of the better one's- I don't know why they have RN's Teaching CNA's Class. Only if they were CNA's for at least 2 years or more
Hi, Kimble!
First, these are training videos for"testing" not for how you would perform nursing tasks in real life.
Second, candidates have to perform testable skills as required by the steps listed in their candidate handbook.
These videos are great. Thank you so much for providing these. However, I have noticed that you add steps that are not listed on the NNAAP skills worksheet. I know you are doing things right and by the book, but I feel the CNA skill evaluation is stressful enough, that it is not helpful to add more steps that are not necessary to pass. Just a thought.
Hi, Roberto! I'm probably the biggest sdvocate of not adding additional unnecessary steps when performing manual skills, so I'm quite uncertain and somewhat confused with your statement 😐!
Hi julie I love your videos but I have a question. do we need a disposable chak under the bedpan?
loved it!!
I passed my skills test, thank you Nurse JAR!! your videos made it much easier!!!
Hi, Alicia! CONGRATULATIONS 👏 🎊 💐 🥳!!!
While raising the bed is their knees still in bending position ?. I forget all steps which I learn almost 2 years ago. Thank u !
Thanks very much I appreciate it!!!🥰🥰
Great videos! But I have a tiny question hopefully i can get a answer before my test. What about the rails what position they need to be in the test because at work is really important the rails because of falling. Or we don’t have to use rails at the test? thanks!
Hi, Carolina! For testing, you'll need to raise the side rail when turning the client away from you.
The lowering of the side rail is not shareable. Hence, you will not get flagged for safety if you leave the side rail up after completing the skill.
I didn't notice a barrier placed under her bed pan for spills
I though you put a chucks under the pan first? Before bed pan
Miss Julie, I enjoy watching your videos, but I have a question.. when you took the bedpan from Mrs. Jones shouldn't you have a barrier to cover the contents?
Hi, Terri! No, you do not need a barrier to cover the contents of the bedpan during testing, nor in real life. Glad you're enjoying my videos!
Thats what I was taught also
Hello .is it ok if I don’t raise the bed during testing.because I’m afraid to forget to low it before I leave him.thank you
Your exceptional instructor. I’m learning a lot in all your video. Thank you so much.
Hey Nurse JAR, I enjoy your videos & they are so helpful. I took my cna class last year of 2020 & this yr i am finally taking my pearson vue test this year because of Covid. I test on September 24th, i just have a quick question, does it matter if you put on your second pair of gloves before you lower HOB or would you recommend lower HOB first & then placing second pair of gloves?? Thank you doll😘😘
Hi, Maddy! Goid luck on your exam!
I train my students to lower the HOB first, then don clean gloves. But, you may put on gloves first, then lower the HOB.
Let me know how you do. Keep in mind, that some test sites may still have COVID restrictions in place, i.e., the wearing of gloves throughout the skills exam.
Thank you so much. I also have another question since it may be Covid restriction do you we would still have the skills mouth care & feeding ?? Im assuming no because of Covid but i was just curious, ❤️❤️
Hi, Maddy! It all depends! Some States omiit those skills completely, while others make modifications to these skills, i.e., testing candidate wears face mask while cleaning the acting candidate's teeth.
Hi Julie! Your videos are super helpful! I've come across some others and seen them grab a chuck and a privacy blanket for their supplies. Are those items needed as well? Thank you!
Hi, Albiona! The only skills needing the candidate to collect a chux or towel to use as a linen protector is for the skills Catheter Care (chux or towel), Peri-Care (chux or towel), Modified Bed Bath (towel), and Foot Care (towel). It is not necessary to collect a privacy blanket for any of the skills unless otherwise specified in your nurse aide candidate handbook or skills list issued by your state's Authorized Administrator. If you test under Pearson Vue, none of the skills require the use of a privacy blanket.
@@NURSEJAR Thank you so much! Do you know if the state of Iowa tests under Pearson Vue? How do I find out what my state tests under?
@@albiona28 Hi! If I'm not mistaken, I believe Iowa falls under Headmaster. But to verify, you may contact the Iowa Department of Health Services who is the jurisdiction over CNAs in Iowa.
@@NURSEJAR Thank you very much for your help!
Unfortunately, the yellow procedure table in the middle prevents watching the processes.
Hi, Sean! Sorry about the visual obstruction.
Well... can u please remove it? Its blocking the whole thing
Hi Julie, do you have the videos for all the 22 skills?
Hi, Emma! Not at this time. But, I am working on it!
Life saver!!
Doing this skill (Assist use with bedpan) don’t need barrier?
Can see how you put the bedpan on
If the resednt can't clean his self haw can i clean him?
Hi thank you I love this demonstration just one question do I smell or inspect what is in bedpan before I pour it out into toilet?
Hi, Alexis! Thank you. No, yoy do not need to inspect the contents of the bedpan.
Ok thank you so much 😊
Julie, at my clinicals last week, I noticed that noone had side rails. When I questioned it, I was told side rails are no longer used because it's a restraint and u need a dr order for it. Does this effect side rails on the state test?
Hi, Kayla! This is very true! Side Rails were once thought to help reduce the risk of persons falling out of bed. However, after years of proven research, CMS and OBRA have deemed side rails to be a danger and unsafe.
In order for side rails to be raised on a continuous basis, the person MUST have a DOCTOR'S ORDER for their use and the order must be conditional as to use the side rails as ENABLERS (resident may use the side rails to help with bed mobility) and/or "padded" side rails for seizure precautions.
Many persons have received serious injuries due to limbs becoming entangled in the dead space of the side rails. Side rails have been the cause of many patient deaths due to the person's head being caught in the dead space of the side rails causing the person to suffocate.
Hello Ms Julie! is it necessary to put bed pad before putting the bedpan to prevent getting the bed wet? My instructor told us to do so but i dont see it on the handbook. Would i lose credit if i skip that part? Thank you!!!
Hi, Yankee! If you are testing under Pearson Vue, for testing, you are not required to place a linen protector for this skill.
Hi I'm retaking my test today, I just wanted to note 2 things I noticed based off of my training and what you've stated in this video. First, would you also place a barrier underneath the bed pan so that if an accident were to happen it would not spread or soil linens? And second, would you also raise the bed to a comfortable height before removing the bed pan and it's contents? Or would it be senseless since you would have to leave the bedside with that height?
Wonderful video!
Sorry for the late response. Hope you did well on your retake. The answer to your question regarding placing a linen protector for the skill "Assist With Use of Bedpan" is "NO!!!" It is not a scored step. In other words, it is not a step in this skill. If you were to place a linen protector, it would not count against you. I always tell my students, do not do more than you have to. Adding extra steps will eventually lead to mistakes!
Again, body mechanics is not emphasized during testing. You may or may not raise the bed to a comfortable height for you. However, for safety, you must remember to lower it before you walk away from the bed. If you do not, that will be a safety issue and may cause you to fail that skill.
JULIE REYNOLDS Thank you! I actually passed my Test! Woohoo!
Alright!!! Congratulations!!!
@@NURSEJARAs far as this skill if we didn't raise the bed to our working level but didn't verbalize I would lower the bed would we get docked ? However, before I ended the skill in my closing procedure I did verbalize I will check bed is lowest safe position & bed wheels are locked & actually shook the bed to check would I still get credit?
Hi nurse jar! Great video! Are body mechanics scorable in the exam? Do we need to raise the bed to insert the bedpan?
Hi, Ashley! If you're testing under Prometric, yes, body mechanics is evaluated and scored.
@@NURSEJAR okay thank you for clarifying! I’m testing under Pearson vue so I think I’ll skip doing the body mechanics to save time! :)
Thanks!
Is it true that bedpan skill is NOT TESTED on credentia exam? It says skill not tested in my handbook?
Quick Question: In your video, right after you empty and rinse the bed pan, you remove your gloves and verbalize "I'm washing my hands". Next you walk back to the Client to lower the bed, place call light in their hands, and open privacy barrier. Then you once again verbalize "I'm washing my hands". I understand the washing your hands after handling the bed pan but is it necessary to re-wash your hands once again after placing the call light near the Client?
Hi, Eric! Good question! Once you verbalize washing hands after removal of gloves, you do not need to reverbalize. I train my students to do so, just to get it ingrained in their heads!
Dont you need a chucks to place under the patient? 🤔
Thank you so much for your videos they helped a lot. I took my exams today on my first try and I passed both the written and the skills. Guys check out her videos she is really good 💞💞
Hi, Veronica! Wonderful!!! CONGRATULATIONS! Happy to hear my videos were helpful!
Hello!! my question is even though its a mannequin you can have the mannequin "lift up" ?
Hello! Thank you for your question. This skill is NOT performed on the mannequin. This skill is performed on a live client. I used the mannequin in this video, as it is just for training purposes for the video. You need to practice and perform this skill on a live person...not a mannequin!
I’m currently going skills class in New York and for assisting with bed pan you don’t don gloves before placing the bed pan and chucks
You don the gloves when only removing the bed pan and chucks, also hand was is 4 times
Oh and a cover for the bed pan
Hi, Venneh! Due to infection control, the candidate must don a clean pair of gloves before placing the bedpan. If testing under Pearson Vue, the placement of a chic (linen protector) is not required.
@@vennessah2945 Hi, Venneh! Please keep in mind that there are 3 main Authorized Administrators, Pearson Vue, Prometric, and Headmaster. Each AA has their own required steps to perform certain skills. These videos demonstrate how the candidate should perform their testable skills if testing under Pearson Vue.

Good morning julie
I just wanted to know do i need to clean the resident after removing the bedpan. Im little confused i have a final exam friday.
Hi, Yasmine! The answer to your question is, "NO!". Remember, in testing, you want only to perform the steps required as listed in your Nurse Aide Candidate Handbook. Good Luck with your exam!
You have to; however, our role is to help promote independence to the resident. So usually, if the resident is not bedridden, we want to hand them over the wipes or cleenex to clean themselves.
Was wondering. After removing your gloves the first time after placement, shouldn't I lower the bed before i verbalize washing my hands? It's like walking away to wash hands while patients bed is still high..? Or verbalize washing hands then lower bed and raise head??
Hi, Adrianne! Each and every time you remove gloves and dispose of them, you must immediately verbalize "washing hands". You are required to wash hands with actual running water and soap only once during the skill, Hand Hygiene. All other times a skill requires you to wash your hands you need only to verbalize doing so.
@@NURSEJAR thank you. You're videos have truly helped me. I'll be testing 11/15/19 I'm sooo nervous.
@@adrianneedwards3219 Hi! Thank you! I'm happy to hear my videos are helpful. Good luck with your exam! You got this! #SMASHTHATCNAEXAM!!!
Great videos just during placement for the pan the procedure tab kind of hides it so we can’t actually see what your doing
Sorry about that. While placing the bedpan, you need to ensure correct placement. Just make sure that the narrow part of the bedpan is facing the footboard of the bed. Regional Test Site Evaluators will physically check for correct placement if he/she did was unable to view while the candidate was placing it underneath the resident.
Hi i have a question do you really need to wash your hands before you get your supplies because on step 6 after you remove your gloves you have to wash your hands after it
The only time you have to wash hands with actual water and soap is during the skill "Hand Hygiene". All other times, you need only verbalize, "Washing hands". It's best to get into the habit of verbalizing washing hands each and every time you remove and dispose of gloves and before verbalizing completion of a skill. Hope I answered your question.
JULIE REYNOLDS thanks i was a little confused I thought you were to wash your hands with soap and water after completing each skill
Can the clients bed be raised at waste level after placing bed pan and doffing gloves, when I wash my hands?
Hi, Tammy! Yes. But, ensure you lower it to a safe position before stating, "skill complete".
hi ms. Julie ...can I put on the gloves before lowering the head of bed? does the order even matter?
Hi, Eliza! It does not matter as long as you do both before placing and removing the bedpan.
Hi Julie Boston I have a question why you not cover the bedpan after the using
Hi, Boston. I do not cover the bedpan after use because that is not a required step for Pearson Vue testers.
Okay thank you Julie
ok I will do that or buy a baby doll. I test next month April
I am uploading Provide Catheter Care For Female, now.
They won’t fail me if I place the bedpan on the table at the beginning of the skill?
No. You should place all supplies on the overbed table.
Wish me luck today on my exam and wishing everyone luck on Theres!! 🍀
Hi . Can you please post more videos.
Yes, I will! I am in the process of video-taping and editing all 22 testable skills. I will upload videos as I get them edited. The next videos to be uploaded will be "Perform Perineal [Peri-Care] on Female" and "Perform Catheter Care on Female". Hoping my videos are helpful to others!!!
Hello i have to take my test, Next Month April 2017. please help me with the skills and show more skills, my instructor just gave us the book and told us to just read it. the Book call Texas Nurse Aide written (or oral) examination &skill evaluation Candidate Handbook January 2016. is that a good skill book . please help
Hi, Christina! I am in the process of editing videos and will upload when done. Hopefully, your instructor gave you the candidate handbook for your state. However, just reading the manual skills will not help you with performing them. You should actually practice hands-on. It is very important to physically perform the skills during your training. I will try to get these videos, Peri-Care & Catheter Care uploaded this weekend. I am also in the process of creating an informational video to help folks become familiar with the testing process, both written and skills.
It wouldn't let me push the read more option, so does this mean we don't use this in the state test now?
Hi, Kayla! You have to keep in mind that how you perform care in a "real" life setting is completely different from performing the same care for testing.
During your skills exam, you MUST perform the skill according to the required steps listed for each individual skill. Hence; if a testable skill requires raising of the side rails, then you must perform that step. You always raise the opposite side rail when turning the person away from you. In real life, you would lower the side rail before leaving the person's room. During TESTING, the lowering of side rails is not scored; therefore, during testing, it does not matter if you lower or keep the side rail raised after you have completed the skill.
Hope this helped you understand better. Just keep in mind that during your Clinical, you're not only enhancing your hands-on skills, but you are also learning how care is provided in "real life". Testing is totally different!
Thank you for your videos. I passed my test
Hi, Veronica! Wonderful!!! CONGRATULATIONS! You #SmashedThatCNAExam!!! Glad my videos were helpful! What state did you test in?
I tested in Mississippi
@@veronicaburns4969 Alright! That's my home state! I'll be headed that way in a few weeks to visit my family!
@@NURSEJAR safe travels. I'm on the Gulf Coast.
@@veronicaburns4969 Me, too--Gulfport!
What do you do if they can't raise their hips
Hi, Hom! In real life and testing, you can always turn the person onto their side. Just make sure you raise the side rail before doing so.
Please nurse what’s the difference between modified bed bath and a partial bed bath?
Hi, Golden!
Pearson Vue's Modified Bed Bath:
1. Performed on a live person
2. Candidate is required to wash, rinse and dry the FACE and ONE ARM, HAND & UNDERARM.
Prometric's Paryial Bed Nath and Backrub:
1. Performed on a mannequin.
2. Candidate is required to wash, rinse and dry the FACE, behind BOTH EARS, NECK, CHEST, TUMMY, and FLANKS, ONE ARM, HAND and UNDERARM, and the BACK of the NECK and BACK.
3. Candidate is required to give the client a BACKRUB after cleaning, rinsing and drying the BACK.
Hope I answered your question!
@@NURSEJAR wow thanks
Nurse Jar , I do have a question.
Hi, DeeMathis! Okay! What is your question?
Good video but u didn't flash the toilet? What happened to the hand wipes coz you can't put them into the toilet
Thank you for your questions. You do not have to flush the toilet during the skills test. Also, you do not have to take out the hand wipe from the package. It's very important that you understand and follow the steps of respected skill.
your tag reminders cover the procedure, very defeating......cant see what the nurse is doing...reallyyeeeee...
Hi, am I supposed to put on gloves after lowering the head of the bed when the client is done? Because in the person Vue handbook it says that you put on gloves first and then you lowered the head of the bed
Hi, Andrea! It doesn't really matter as long as you put on your gloves before you place and/or remove the bedpan.
why your not putting linen protector under bedpan and lower the top sheet and cover her with bath blanket?
Hi, Pervia! I'm not performing these steps that you mention because they are not required steps for Pearson Vue. My videos are based on Pearson Vue testing.
@@NURSEJAR oh ok thank you Julie. So its ok if i dont do this or include this while performing anymore anymore ? My exam will be on Jan 18,,so i want to make sure that im performing right . I like your videos its very specific and informative.
@@perviabrown7577 Hi! If you are testing under Pearson Vue, you'll do fine by performing your skills as I have demonstrated in my videos.
Glad to hear my videos are helpful!
Is a barrier necessary to use before I place the bedpan ?
Hi, Natasha! If you're testing under Prometric, yes. If you are testing under Pearson Vue, no.
In my state they require 3 glove changes and hand washes when giving the bed pan. It’s ridiculous.
Hi, Megan! For testing or real life?
For testing. I guarantee I would not change my gloves and wash my hands 3 times just for giving the bed pan, unless there was a good reason.
@@030397mcp Hi, Megan! Yep! The methods in which you perform nursing tasks in real life is totally different than what is required of how you should perform tasks during testing.
Ms I'm on California can I used your method as well? my exam is 3/24 I feel like I have anxiety ,I need help I feel kind os lost my last skill class was 3/4 I feel like I forgot everything expecially the range of motions
Hi, Elena! Yes, California testers may use my videos for test prep. Good luck on your exam! Let me know how you do.
@@NURSEJAR thank you Ms I passed my exam yesterday 3/24 the writing and the skills thank you🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@elenamidence1009 yAY!!! CONGRATULATIONS 👏👏👏! You #SmashedThatCNAExam!!!
@@NURSEJAR thank you 🙏🏼 very helpful videos you have here 💙
Hi ms. Julie, I recently took my cna exam and I failed my written part but the instructor said they would email us on our clinical scores later in the day. I never received them so I contacted them and they told me to call prometric and explain my problem. I call prometric and they told me they didn’t have my test scores. I’m from Michigan! Can you give me any advice on what to do about this problem?
Hi, Taylor! You have actually taken the appropriate steps to retrieve your test scores if not given to you on test day. I'd give it a few more days, then call Prometric again.
JULIE REYNOLDS okay thank you! Do you also know how you can prepare yourself for the written part of the exam?
I feel really discouraged on retaking it because I studied really hard for that test.
@@TaylorVernai Hi! Doing online practice tests are helpful. I refer only one site, which is CNA.Plus.
@@TaylorVernai Don't be discouraged. Keep your mind focused on what you need to do to pass the retake. You'll do it!!!
Do the skills vary in California?
Hi, Dee C! I believe CA is not tested on Catheter Care and Electronic BP. All other skills are the same.
always flush the toilet after emptying the content of bedpan into the toilet.
Houston Texas
Okay. So, my videos are based on guidelines for Texas. They should help you. If you are able to, practice with a friend or family member. Have him/her act as the resident/client.
In real life most CANNOT RAISE THEIR HIPS!! They need to show how to do it if you have to roll the patient on their side and place the bedpan that way, much more difficult!! When they roll after using the bedpan more easily the bedpan will tip.
