I really want to thank you because your videos helped me so much to practice , you are wonderful. I passed my test yesterday . both written and skills : ) hugs and God bless you!!
Thank you for these videos! They have helped me out so much!I had just tested in Sacramento , but unfortunately I did not pass my skills the first time . The written was easy and I was confident I’d pass😀 but in my skills (I didn’t take off my PPE in the right area , I panicked!) ...as embarrassing as that is to admit ... I hope to help someone else with this “heads up”. So anyways this one was my second skill and I was surprised I actually passed , but they totally threw me off. The card stated my resident was paralyzed but didn’t say what side? And said my resident was already in a upright position and she wasn’t? Also they didn’t have any cups only Velcro food on a plastic sheet. No drinks or plastic cups or anything! So knowing how important it is to drink in between bites, I asked them where was the water cup?? The proctor told me to just pretend....unfortunately I had to pretend a lot more than I expected. I assumed since it was the SB Test we would have a more realistic hospital set up? But there was only pieces of paper written on that said; “sink, trash, hazmat etc “ I was totally out of my element, so be prepared for that. Thank goodness the proctors were very kind and professional so that eased my nerves . The best advice I can give (from someone who 😞) is just be prepared to be thrown off and keep in mind the time. Just practice the steps and sanitation , keep watching these videos and read over the ARC skills sheets ( that’s the Proctors check list during board ) DONT forget anything that’s BOLD in the ARC steps, it’s an automatic fail..My next test is soon so wish me luck! Congratulations 🍾 to all who’s passed, and best of luck ☘️ to those who test soon! 🖤🖤🖤
Thanks for the info ! I’m in Sacramento also I take my state test on September 22nd, it sounds like they have changed a few things since I took it the first time 4 years ago. Good luck on yours ! We got this
This seems so unusually complicated, but then I have to remember that this is for a paralyzed resident. Amazing videos. I just got out of a short-term care facility due to a broken leg and I've gained appreciation of what STNA's go through. Kudos for an excellent series.
I can't express how amazing your videos are. I've been a part-time caretaker to my dad the past few months and these have helped me so much. I know most people are looking to pass the CNA exam, but these do so much more than you know. Thank you!
I need to pass my skills I failed . I need to retake and I’m hoping your videos help me pass. I need this for my family. Thank you so much for the videos
Thankfully,I passed the CNA Stateboard exam,both parts.Thank you,Christine.I couldn't of done it without you.You are truly amazing 🌠🌠🥳. Thank you for your help with everything.🎆🎆🎆🎆
I have to say I wish I hadn't wasted my money at the school I went to and just came to sacMed. you guys are on point. I see how you teach and do clinicals at my place of work and I wish I had gone to your school. the school I am at is absolutely terrible. I thank you for these videos because if it was left up to my school, I would fail my exam. thanks again for the help❤
These videos are so helpful :D Is there a list of dietary terms/abbreviations we should definitely know for the state? For example, NAS was covered in the video.
Monica Ceja I’m taking my test in Sacramento this coming Saturday on March 7th how is the exam for Sacramento? I’ve been hearing that it’s hard to pass in Sacramento.
+Elonah Oton Hello, so if your testing out of Sacramento or Yuba City with the American Red Cross students have said the evaluators told them one side rail up and one side rail down in your ending procedure when leaving the resident. American Red Cross's reasoning for this is that having both side rails up can be considered a restraint and you would need a Dr.'s order for both side rails to be up when leaving a resident.
I am dearly sorry to bother, however, when I checked for the C.N.A. Skills#2 there wasn't any videos for that. As well as #3 and many other numbers. Why is that? Are there only certain skills that needs to be known???
How would she have drank 50 ml that looked like a 8oz glass if she drank half it would’ve been 120ml 3oz 90ml the whole glass 240ml you get the picture how do come up with 50 unless she meant she ate 50% of her food
Hi. I just have a quick question. Should it be feeding the resident from the weak side so the resident can help with the procedure by using his/her strong side?
+Anh Tuan Bui Yes. You will be feeding from the weaker side but placing the food on the stronger side of the residents mouth. You should be asking the resident if they can assist you by feeding themselves using the stronger arm but depending on the the actual scenario at the state test you might have to do the actual feeding like in the video. Asking them to try to feed themselves promotes independence.
You need to take it back tell them no egg low sugar she need food for her sugar she like to drink black coffee you need to order her lunch and her dinner
If you are testing in the GREATER SACRAMENTO AREA (I am posting this Dec 2016) the ARC does this skill differently than how it is performed here. the "meal tray" is a laminated booklet. the front page is the plate cover and also has the diet card listed (there is art, different colored and styled font and the cover itself is brown/orange. pretty busy considering they don't orient you on it nor give you time to orient yourself). the inside contains velcro laminated food that can be removed (it doesn't look that way and the evaluator will not tell you). also, please note that the dynamics of your skill can and may be changed: i.e. the evaluator can pose as your "resident" and you may not have a mannequin. I had this skill and I did not pass because I anticipated the scenario being similar to this and the evaluators changed the dynamics of my skill and also my supplies. the evaluator posed herself in a chair. the only thing I didn't do correctly was making sure the tray was for the resident. because I was not oriented on the supplies they provided me, I could not locate the information and made the mistake of assuming that the "meal trays" were all for the resident and I was being asked to select one in accordance to the listed dislikes and allergies. the evaluators did not clarify when I pointed out my confusion with the booklet and they don't leave room to discuss any discrepancies or misunderstandings. so don't go into the test expecting it to be black/white. they will try to trip you up and throw you off. my class was large, 15 girls. only two of us passed the skills and out of the 30 girls that tested that day, the two were the only ones.
Caregivers and nurses are the heart and soul of home health.
I really want to thank you because your videos helped me so much to practice , you are wonderful. I passed my test yesterday . both written and skills : )
hugs and God bless you!!

MARIA I WANT TO ASK YOU SOMETHING, ITS THAT OK.?

MONICA I HAVE DE SAME QUESTION, DID YOU FIND OUT? WHEN IS YOUR TEST DAY, I’M FROM SACRAMENTO TOO😀😀
Monica Ceja I’m taking my test in Sacramento this coming Saturday on March 7th how is the exam for Sacramento? I’ve been hearing that it’s hard to pass in Sacramento.
@@brendavue9652 how is the test in sac? Was it hard?
Elidia Gomez As long as you know all your skills it’s super easy. I passed it my first time. Written test is super easy as well too.
@@brendavue9652 I’m taking my CNA exam this week in Sacramento I’m so scared omg 😳
The many CNAs that got away with just trashing the eggs and serving the food anyway 🤦🏾♀️ what they don’t know hurts them ppl ..
since you put the talbe in the end within her reach, do we not need to raise the side rail up anymore?
+Elonah Oton Hello, so if your testing out of Sacramento or Yuba City with the American Red Cross students have said the evaluators told them one side rail up and one side rail down in your ending procedure when leaving the resident. American Red Cross's reasoning for this is that having both side rails up can be considered a restraint and you would need a Dr.'s order for both side rails to be up when leaving a resident.
Bacon is not compliant with the no added salt diet 😂
Great
Mrs Jones fall from bed on right side when you go to kitchen without put up bed side reel

I am dearly sorry to bother, however, when I checked for the C.N.A. Skills#2 there wasn't any videos for that. As well as #3 and many other numbers. Why is that? Are there only certain skills that needs to be known???
Good for me thank
are you supposed to put the rails up if your leaving to get a new tray ?
How would she have drank 50 ml that looked like a 8oz glass if she drank half it would’ve been 120ml 3oz 90ml the whole glass 240ml you get the picture how do come up with 50 unless she meant she ate 50% of her food
never feed a Resident with a fork unless they feeding on they own but us as CNA we are not allow to feed resident with forks
Really ???
Don't you have to wash the patient's hands first?
Hannah Campas She did.
Michelle she forgot to dry her hands
thanhyou agian
Does anyone know how many CC's were in the plastic cup?
That depends on the facility :)

That is tricky they need more $70.00 dollars from students which I think not fair.

where is skill 17?
