@@NURSEJARwhen a candidate is leaving the bedside of the resident, should the bed be lowered back to a safe level or let it remain until all the items are put away and one is closing?
I actually watched your videos, because reading the actual booklet to become a CNA confused me, but because of me watching your videos, I took my CNA skills exam, and I passed💯❤️
same here, i am so confused from the program i purchased to get me ready to take and pass the cna exam, for instance it says that we need to take the pulse twice and also when rinsing bedpans or anything to rinse 3 times however i am not sure if that is still the requirement, i wonder if i should just do what nurse jar is doing and only do it once
Thank you so much! I found your videos the day that I failed my first CNA skills exam and a few weeks, I think almost a month later I did a retake and I passed! If it were not for you and your videos I don't know what I would have done!!!! Your videos are a blessing !!!
🗣️Amen to that! I'm preparing so I can pass the first time 🎉🗣️ I'll be in clinicals in one week from Sunday (7/8/2024) 🎉🎉🎉 and 🗣️I'm Confident that' it'll pay off the first time!!! 🗣️ Thanks Fabulous Nurse JAR 💜☺️🥳 My Instructor told the class about you and I'm forever grateful he did! ❤ State Exam here I come 🎉🥳

Nurse Jar, I want to thank you for your videos they were very helpful to me! I took my skills and written exam this past Saturday and passed on the first try! I know it's because of your videos. So thank you again!!
Hey, I'm not a student, i just stumbled on here and absolutely love the work nurses do. I didn't realize how many steps y'all have to think about , what it translates to is high quality care. God bless you.
Thank you so much nurse Jar for the videos i watched them all the time before taking my exams i understood alot. This mock exams really helped me to have a picture of how the test day will look like and i was able yo manage my time well, i was confident. I passed both written and skills for the first time taking the exams, i can't go without coming back to say thank you.
Nurse Jar , thank you for all your videos, it’s been very helpful.. I pass both my written and Skills exam yesterday, watching your videos non-stop .. Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Nurse Jar you are more of a blessing than you know Ma’am🤍 I’m just starting my program and I’ve been watching your videos. I feel anxious but prepared thanks to you 🥰

Hi I’m from Louisiana and I want thank you so much for the videos..They help me so much.I passed both Test on my First try.. Thank you so much u are the Best..
Hello I just came across your channel the other day and watched a video I start seeing a part 1 on Monday next and I'm trying to get little of a head but I just know I going to pass my and thanks for uploading these videos
Thank you so much @nursejar for all the detailed skills because of you I cleared my skill and knowledge exam though it’s my challenge test out and it came out great result.
Hello Nurse Jar your video are good .I really learnt from it . My question to you is it said that when ever you wish to take your patient respiration they not know because they can ulter their breath ?
@@elhoucineaghouache8427 I did every single thing by the book. place i was going i had heard of a specific proctor who was so incredibly incompetent. I knew i had her when I got there, because the group that tested before me told me they were all failed, and feel like she could even have early on set…..by the way she was acting. She walked away middle of me testing to retake the patients BP after just finishing that. Just know, you can do everything correct and still be screwed over. Don’t be shy to ask questions, and be assertive in a way, respectfully. After testing and getting my results, I genuinely asked her why she kept walking away and knocking me for things I DID, she just was not lying attention. Still failed me. Retested and passed.
Was wondering if it was necessary to include units of measurements when taking blood pressure, pulse, weight etc. ? Or simply providing the number is sufficient
Hi, Clarissa! You do not need to record the unit of measurement for BP, P, or R. However, for urine output, you will need to document the unit of measurement in ml or cm, and for weight, you will need to document unit of measurement in pounds (lb). If measuring weight in kilograms, you will need to document "kg."

Love what nurses do....started taking courses lo g ago but did not complete..but watching the vid....after cleansing Paris t and the catheter we used the sa.e gloves to pull up the patients sheet and to wash the tub and touch the handle of the storage cabinet...and the perimeter of the basin. I would have changed gloves before touching those other areas ......just saying..
Love your Videos Nurse Jar, Taking my exams next week. I did notice @ 13:00 (Timestamp) you reached over the resident to pull out the other side of the sheet protector. Can you please clarify if that is okay to do, during the exam or is it better to walk around to the other side of the bed? Thank You in advance!
Always think in terms of state's procedures..and you will be good..good luck with school..you got this.Nd this work is so fulfilling..knowing youre keeping ppl alive is an extremely rewarding feeling..
Me too, I was told I need a toothette also, and the basin has to be washed with 4 paper towels, we can't place the toothbrush upward or on the chuck but in the basin after its been rinsed off etc.. 🤦♀️
Taking my test today... I'm 2hrs early still watching your videos... I hope I pass! (Came early because my test was 2hrs away from my home and didn't want to be late period)
@NURSE JAR sadly 😥 I failed the skills test bust passed the computer test... if I had found you on TH-cam a month ago instead of Monday I know I would have passed because everything I did get right I got right because of the videos I was able to watch of yours!... I'm going to study harder this month tho with your knowledge and take the skills test again next month and when I pass which I will now that I can learn from you... I will do a victory dance 💃 😎 and buy your merch!
Do we have to explain every step while doing the clinicals to the examiner? I know explaining it to the resident is pertinent but as far as every step is it neccessary?
yeah sadly, so that they know you know what youre doing. the examiner wants to see you know, and are talking to resident. its kinda weird and confusing but ive been getting more comfortable lately lol
At 6:00 I thought we weren’t allowed to tell the resident to not tell them that we’re doing respirations but to just tell them that we’re doing vital signs instead. Am I confused? Also my I’m being tested under D&S with credentia it was 5 skills but is D&S similar or is there difference since thier skills are combined?
Ms J can a correction be made after a skill is complete and the next skill has started? Or can a correction be made only during a skill before it is completed?
I would like to say thank you for all your videos they help me and 2 friends to passed the skills exam today. Thank you so much may the Lord continue to bless you 🙏🏽 you doing a great job keep going ❤
Hi, Sirina! Awesome!!! CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 to you and your friends 🧡! I'm happy to hear that my videos were instrumental with y'all passing your exams!
Hi, Amar! If you are testing under Pearson Vue or Credentia, body mechanics is not emphasized. If you are testing under Prometric, body mechanics is emphasized and must be employed during testing.
Hi Nurse Jar, I'm waiting on my date to do my exam. But i get confused at times focusing mainly on the skills and not the theory. I have been waiting since January for a date and each day i get more nervous cause I'm afraid I'm going to fail. Thanks for your videos.
Hi miss thanks for sharing those skills really hopefully am asking am I supposed to wash my hands after every skill done or only verbally say it ,thank you
Hi, Essie! It depends on which Authorized Administrator you are testing under. Pearson Vue, Credentia, and Prometric requires candidates to verbalize "washing hands" whenever required to do so after initially washing hands with actual water and soap ( Hand Hygiene skill). Headmaster, on the other hand, requires candidates to use hand sanitizer whenever required to wash hands after performing Hand Hygiene.
I miss julie first thank u so much for your help...I have an question when they said clean catheter we have to clean from only or we have to clean the private back part also ??? Please I'm confused in tha because my professor said when they said clean catheter we have to do all three thing together. From ,catheter and back ???? I need u to help me please anwer
Hey Nurse jar I take my skills test tomorrow 🙂 I noticed that you didn’t do open procedures before hand washing? Is it not required for prometric? I just want to be sure. Thank you!!!
I don’t understand is this exactly the way the test will be with prometric skills? Like would it all be combined together or would we have separate times for each skill?
Hi, Skywagner! Yes. Individual skills are not individually timed. You will be given a certain amount of time (anywhere between 30 - 40 minutes) to complete your entire skills exam.
@@NURSEJAR Thank you so much for answering my questions! This might be a stupid question, but before we actually wash hands would we do open procedures with resident before doing so? Or just automatically wash hands and then start the skills? I didn’t see you do it in the hand washing video but I did see you mentioned it in the open procedure video. So just wanted to be sure on that. Thank you again Nurse Jar!
Thank you Nurse J I've been following you for a few years now I'm from jamaica moved here in Florida and your videos are awesome I've been to class here in Florida for the cna but your videos is what I'm watching and about to sit the exam in a few weeks wish me luck
Hi, Edna! I strongly encourage students/candidates to verbalize everything you do, even with skills you'll perform on self, such as Hand Hygiene. Doing so will help keep your mind off of the Evaluator and keep you focused on what you are doing.
Nope they still do it, but they use different catheters now and in most states they don't allow CNA's to catheter the patients only do perineal care and elimination.
She did offer the wipes and toilet paper and stepped out so that she can give her privacy. Which part are you asking her about? Maybe we all missed it!
OK. So you did catheter care and handled potentially infectious material, and then went straight to the faucet without doffing the dirty gloves first before touching the faucet handles? What am I missing? @18:04 "I'm going to dispose of my gloves without contaminating myself." Meanwhile you've contaminated multiple surfaces in the room. Is this what State licensing boards are teaching CNA's to pass the skills exams these days? We need to do better.
@user-qr8ki8ue4i I started my nursing career as an ICU nurse. Trust me, I understand your concerns. I fought this battle in 2013, and I asked the same question amongst many others. The states and Authorized Administrators do not communicate with one another when it comes to determining the steps of the manual skills. After the 11th NCSBN, I knew I was fighting a losing battle! Most of the testable skills are and have to be abbreviated for testing, as candidates are given a certain amount of time to complete 4-5 skills. But, rest assured, we instructors train our students on how these tasks should properly be performed in real life during Lecture/Lab and Clinical. But, we also have to train them on how it is required to be performed for testing.
@@NURSEJAR Thank you for providing such excellent insight and context! I thought I was going nuts for a minute. I never knew about the "disconnect" between State regulators, examiners, BON's, etc.

Hi, Amar!
If you are testing under Pearson Vue or Credentia, body mechanics is not emphasized.

Question when you did catheter care you didn’t change your gloves only once?
Is that the new hand wash miss,because I know only the old ways and I’m taking skills on Friday
Hi, Lokendog! Yes, if you test under Prometric.
If you test under Pearson Vue or Credentia, you are not required to clean your cuticles.

do they only use females? I haven't seen a male video
Hi, Marianne! Yes! For testing, only female mannequins are used for mannequin skills.
It would be great if you could do mock skills for Indiana testing. You do great on what you do!
Hi, Dee-qr7yb! Awww! Thank you 😊! Who's the Authorized Administrator for Indiana?
What do you mean by 1000
Hi nurse jar can you perform a full bed bath on your next video please
Is their math for cna ?
Hi, Juana! You'll need to know how to convert ounces into milliliters and kilograms into pounds.
Hha
I liked your performance but i was told you have to leave the bed on the lowest level.
That is totally not true
OK. So you did catheter care and handled potentially infectious material, and then went straight to the faucet without doffing the dirty gloves first before touching the faucet handles? What am I missing? @18:04 "I'm going to dispose of my gloves without contaminating myself." Meanwhile you've contaminated multiple surfaces in the room. Is this what State licensing boards are teaching CNA's to pass the skills exams these days? We need to do better.
Hi, L! Why don't you pioneer this effort and contact each state's NCSBN.
@@NURSEJAR Great idea. As a hospital RN, it confuses me why CNA testing skills would differ from hospital infection control practices.
@user-qr8ki8ue4i I started my nursing career as an ICU nurse. Trust me, I understand your concerns.
I fought this battle in 2013, and I asked the same question amongst many others. The states and Authorized Administrators do not communicate with one another when it comes to determining the steps of the manual skills.
After the 11th NCSBN, I knew I was fighting a losing battle!
Most of the testable skills are and have to be abbreviated for testing, as candidates are given a certain amount of time to complete 4-5 skills.
But, rest assured, we instructors train our students on how these tasks should properly be performed in real life during Lecture/Lab and Clinical. But, we also have to train them on how it is required to be performed for testing.
@@NURSEJAR Thank you for providing such excellent insight and context! I thought I was going nuts for a minute. I never knew about the "disconnect" between State regulators, examiners, BON's, etc.
@user-qr8ki8ue4i Yep! It's been like that for many years!
What a waste of water
