I felt this! I had class sept 30th got done a few weeks ago my transfer went through but couldn’t take the actual test due to covid, so here I am reviewing and hoping like hell I pass

[@madenabennett]

I took a fantastic local course. they made everything so smoothe. vaccines, background, setting up prometric exam. volunteering etc…. (for example I missed one question on the written test). but wow did they fail on the skills lol. I’ve worked in home health care for three years, sobI think that definitely worked against me lol. I didn’t feel great so I didn’t go in for last day of practice so MAYBE they pulled it together… but seriously the only reason I passed skills was watching your videos all night. THANK YOU!! Even where I failed to check if bed locked and call light, Ivoverdidceverything else so much I think the exam taker knew I knew what I was doing, I just wasn’t in my element. so Yeah. licensed and onboarding!!

But u wash only one hand what about the second hand

[@plinerd]

Oh my gosh, thank you so much for explaining why you aren't using a fresh spot of the facecloth on the torso and arms/legs. My class used the Hartmann videos and the video said to use 2-4 facecloths AND to make sure you only use one section for each stroke, not differentiating between face and other parts and I've been WRACKING my brain trying to figure out how on Earth you use 2-4 facecloths to wash and rinse AND not use a section more than once on the whole body. LOL. I'm in Massachusetts, which maybe has different rules, but since you specified "yes, one section on the face parts and no, not just one section on these others parts" it makes me think we have the same expectations in that regard. You have SAVED my brain. I could cry. LOL.

[@sydney-rosesmithson8856]

So I keep seeing all of your videos that you walk away from a bed that is in a high position. My CNA instructor told me that I failed instantly if I walked any more than an arms like the way from a bed. Is this true? Or can you walk away from a bed that's up as long as you put it down at the end of the scale? I'm in Massachusetts if that matters.

[@marthalela7852]

Do you have to clean both Arms ?

[@lilly_koii]

My instructor told me to greet the resident and explain the procedure, safety check, privacy etc. before gathering supplies. Do you think it matters? I'm in NY if that means anything. Thank you for all of these videos by the way, they're so helpful!

[@scarlettn797]

Follow the video for state testing, but I have a few tricks I use at a hospital! State testing and where you start working can have different techniques. Again, follow her steps for the actual testing! Always have a draw sheet (basically just a shortened flat sheet) that lies under the patient so that when you pull the sheet towards you the patient shifts with it, therefore, you can also turn the patient as well as scooting them closer to in case they cannot help you turn. Some patients can’t even move their arm let alone turn over and hold a side rail for you! Another tip is to just bring two blankets and a new sheet (usually I just replace the entire bedding; fitted sheet, pillow case etc). Remove the old blanket and place in soiled bin. Use one clean blanket to cover while bathing and one to replace their old blanket. Instead of fiddling with the gown and sheet just untie, untuck (from under their buttocks or back) and unbutton the gown but leave it in place. Place the bath blanket over them and then remove the gown and flat sheet completely while maintaining privacy. No need to have a flat sheet over them while you have a blanket covering! Also, look into how to wash a patients hair that is bedridden! Hospitals have rinse-less shower caps you can use that work well for total care or bedridden patients. I know of techs that actually wash their patients hair with water, haven’t gotten that advanced yet!

Wait, I'm confused. I just took the CNA class (in Washington state) and we were taught (and it's in our booklet) that this skill only tests washing the face/arm, and that it's performed on a live person. Is it different for washington, or will I need to wash their torso/back when I take the test next week?
