Hi, Phia! CONGRATULATIONS! You #SMASHTHATCNAEXAM!!! Happy to hear my videos were instrumental in your passing your exam.

Hi, Phat_Jenny! Woo-Hoo!!! Way to go!!! CONGRATULATIONS! You #SMASHTHATCNAEXAM!!! What state did you test in?

I have my skill in a few days , mouth care isn’t apart of skills ?

What should I focus on for skills ?

@@lydiannafelix1480 I took this test quite a while ago, so check with your local testing center to see if you might have this skill. Focusing on all of the skills is important for passing the exam. Good luck!

Hi, Grace! Wonderful! CONGRATULATIONS! You #SMASHTHATCNAEXAM!!!

@@NURSEJAR. Hi, this is Betty again. With your awesome videos, I passed my CNA state exam!!! Thank you so much for your inspirational advice and your encouraging personality.

@@djpotts2554 Awesome!!! CONGRATULATIONS! You #SmashedThatCNAExam!!!

Hi, Ennovyrose! Thank you! Glad my videos are helpful.

Thank you! Happy to hear that my videos are helpful.

Hi, Smrita! No problem!!! For this skill, it does not matter if you leave the HOB raised or lower it once you complete the skill. Good Luck on your exam!

JULIE REYNOLDS Thanks so much for your reply !♥️

Hi! Ask the resident if they'd like to stay as is or if they'd rather have the HOB lowered. Patient preference.

Hi, Ann! If you are testing under Pearson Vue, the only time you will need to wash your hands with actual running water and soap is during the skill "Hand Hygiene", which will always be the first skill you perform. Any time after that, whenever the skill requires you to "wash hands", you need only verbalize doing so. Watching my video, "When Do I Wash My Hands?", may give you a better understanding.

Hi, Maggie! Why would you want to perform an additional, unnecessary step? Remember, you are timed!!!

Not quite sure what you are asking!

Hi, Ann! No. You do not always have to open the privacy curtain/screen or door. During testing, maintaining the person's privacy is okay and lessens the risk of you forgetting to do so.

@@NURSEJAR Thank you for your reply.

@@TippyPuddles Hi! You are most welcome!

@@NURSEJAR how do I purchase some of the list I see ppl speak of and I think you said there was one for what supplies are needed for each skill . Ty luv your videos here in Maryland , testing with credentia next week

Hi, Thea! You could, but I highly recommend not using the nemesis basin as your clean barrier for the toothbrush for placing on the table. One, even though you'll already have to collect/gather an nemesis basin to perform this skill, you'll end up having to perform an extra step by placing the second nemesis basin you collect in the designated dirty area if the NAE instructs you to leave the supplies at the sink. Second, it's easier to grab a washcloth then another bulky supply. You have to think about what is most convenient and time-saving.

​@@NURSEJAR Thank you so much for responding so quickly! I got really lucky to find your videos they're extremely informative and you happen to be based in Texas too so that's a bonus. I also have a couple of other questions if you don't mind, I'm sorry to ask so many but my exam is this weekend.. during the skill of repositioning the resident I noticed that in the mock exam that one of your students rolled the sheet all the way to the bottom of the bed for the entirety of the skill? Is that allowed? Also when turning the client to the side to put the linen protector beneath them will you be penalized if the side rail isn't up? (in any skill other than repositioning the client I mean) And my last question is if it's essential for the linen protector to be beneath the client during assistance with the bedpan, that's how I was taught at my cna school but it doesn't seem like it's required or even mentioned in the handbook. Again, I apologize for asking so many questions and thank you so much for your time.

@@cookielover432 Thea Fradejas Thea Fradejas Hi! I don't mind questions at all! Let's see if I can answer these for you! 1. Positioning: It's okay to lower the sheets while placing pillows. Just remember to cover the patient before stating "skill complete". 2. Siderails: Whenever turning the patient away from you, you must always raise the sidewalk on the side that you'll be turning the patient. In the skill, "Positions on Side", the step specifically states to do so. In other skills, like, "Performs Peri-Care for Female", it does not. However, you have to keep in mind "SAFETY", one of the 5 Indirect Care Skills. If you do not raise the side rail before turning the patient to place the linen protector, you will get flagged for safety. To avoid this from occurring, you may always raise the mannequins hips to place the linen protector. 3. Bedpan: Placement of a linen protector is not required for this skill. You'll just be wasting precious time by performing this additional, unneccessary step. Hope I answered all your questions. Let me know how you do on your exam.

Hi again miss Julie, I just wanted to let you know that I passed my exam!!!! Id just like to thank you for taking the time to answer my questions and for all of your amazing informative videos!!

@@cookielover432 Hi! CONGRATULATIONS! You #SMASHTHATCNAEXAM! Thank you for following up with me.

Hi, Nicole! Way to go! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

JULIE love you thx

@@nicolesaincyr3935 You are most welcome!

Hi, Marie! Good luck with your training! I hope my videos will be helpful to you.

Thank you because you answer me appreciated

Hi, B's! For testing, you do not need to place a clean barrier on the table before setting down your supplies.

Hi B's i will start CNA class next months every day I watch your video , i need help to pass my exams

Hello

Hi, Grace! You can either leave them sitting upright or lower the HOB. How you choose to leave the client should be dependent on what skill you will be required to perform next.

@@NURSEJAR thank you so much Ms.julie. My skill exam is next week and I hope to pass. I'll keep you posted. You're such a big help. 😍

Hi, Emeraude! How sweet of you! Yes, I am in San Antonio, Texas. I teach with the school district.

Hi, Briana! Yes, it is. The testing candidate may be required to wear a face mask while performing this skill.

Hi, Alice! You may leave the client in the upright position or you may lower the HOB.

Hi! Oh, yes! In real life, you want to promote the person's independence as much as possible, and allow the person to do as much as he/she can within his/her functional limits.

Hi, Smrita! Don't think you finished your comment! When is your exsm?

Hi, Mina! If you look on my "VIDEOS" page on my channel, there is a video demonstration on "Denture Care".

Hi! Exactly which "rules" are you referring to? Please, clarify.

@@NURSEJAR by rules I really mean the steps. Are the steps the same. To each states? For instance if i earn my certification in florida and i move to texas does the same rules apply? Or would i need to retake the test and earm certification on texas

@@hornman3704 Hi! Thanks for clarifying. I actually uploaded a video explaining reciprocity in debt. Check it out when you have time. The video is titled "Reciprocity ". But, to answer your question, it all depends if your current state of residence is a compact state and whether or not that state has a reciprocity agreement with the state you are going to move to. My video explains it more in depth, siting the compact states. Hope this answered your question!

Hi, Mrs. Doubtfire! You are absolutely 💯!!! My videos are training videos for testing certification.

Hi, Virginia! Please, Don't stress. It may take anywhere from 24 - 72 hours after testing to have results posted on the NAR. You can always check online through your state's NAR ( Nurse Aide Registry).

Thanks for sharing your ideas with and God bless you all

Hope this video will help me pass my exam in Jesus name

Hi, Tanesha! Pay scales are dependent on where you live and what type of agency/ facility you work at. On average, starting pay for CNAs can range anywhere from $9 - $14/hour. Higher paying CNA jobs you'll find with nursing agencies and hospitals.

I started at 17.65 at a hospital that included 1.90 night differential for working graveyard shift. I live in California.

@@queenbitch14381 Hi, Queen! Very nice!

I started at $15/hr base pay, and just got a 45 cents raise with union contract updates after being with my company for only 4 months

I make $25-$35/hr as a server in AZ. Contemplating a change but can't commit to years of studying. The more Nurse Jar videos I watch, the more convinced that the health field may not be for me. It is indeed hard work, I don't think I could do it for such low pay. My respects to you gals/gents. Btw, this lady is a great teacher.

Hi, Marie!

Hi, Mary! Yes, you will have to know what supplies to collect for each individual skill, and will need to gather them before you perform each skill.
