January, bettering self for career::

Well, friends. Been a ridiculously long time since I have been on, over a year. Not much happened last year. Seems like all I ever do is give an update of the past. I'd rather use this post to talk about recent events. 

This past month of January, I took a CNA class. I knew that since I have a nurturing personality I could make a great nurse. I was originally planning on going all the way to RN, but the class itself put me in slow motion. It is WAY harder than it seems. Mostly because in the back of my mind, I kept thinking about my personal experiences. We did 2ish weeks of classroom lecture and lab and then one week of clinical in the setting. We went to a local home that had many different sections from independent apartments to nursing home that had multiple units. My class spent time in the nursing home section. On the second floor were the residents that didn't have much physical control or muscle. Using mostly wheelchairs and having incontinent cared for. On the main floor were 3 units for Alzheimer's residents. I spent time in almost all areas. On the main floor was a unit with mostly behavior issues and that is where I really fit in. I was able to step up and complete a lot of tasks properly. I was able to connect with MANY residents. It was hard to leave! 

So with that done, I have to take state testing before I can get a job in the field. 

Then I plan on applying everywhere! Look at me go! 

The endssss.
