We wish you the best of luck in your new career.

Through our experience with our own nursing assistant students and networking with other facilities we found that students had the most difficulties in passing the skills portion of the Promissor CNA. State Licensing Test. We wanted to find a way to help each nurse aide students in this area. We put together a video that follows the skills in the nurse aide handbook and gave a copy to each of our C.N.A. students. Our student's pass rates on the skills part of the state test went up considerable.

Our video follows  Promissor's nurse aide handbook.

(For our video following Headmaster testing agency nurse aide handbook please see the menu to the left)

The video demonstrates each skill in the CNA Candidate Handbook step by step, slowly and clearly narrated so that the nurse aide student can follow along in their handbook as they watch the VHS or DVD as often as necessary. Watching it several times the day before the nursing assistant test has proven to be very helpful.

There are twenty-four C.N.A. skills demonstrated in the video:

• What to expect the day of your test
• Tips to help you pass your nursing assistant test the FIRST time.
• How to properly remove gloves
• Proper use of a Bathblanket

1. Washing your hands
2. Measuring and recording a clients weight
3. Providing mouth care
4. Dressing a client with an affected arm
5. Transferring a client from bed to a wheelchair
6. Assisting a client to ambulate
7. Cleaning and storing dentures
8. Performing passive range of motion for a shoulder
9. Performing passive range of motion for a knee and ankle
10. Measuring and recording urinary output
11. Assisting client with using a bedpan
12. Providing perineal care for an incontinent client
13. Providing catheter care
14. Taking and recording radial pulse, and counting and recording respiration
15. Taking and recording clients blood pressure (one-step procedure)
16. Taking and recording clients blood pressure (two-step procedure)
17. Putting on knee-high elastic stocking on a client
18. Making an occupied bed

20. Providing fingernail care
