How to challenge the CNA Exam after one semester of nursing school?

Discount Medical Scrubs

I have heard from various people that after you finish one semester of nursing school, you are eligible to become certified as a CNA without having to take a CNA training class. Does anyone know how to do this in the state of Pennsylvania? I have been searching and cant find anything!

    Most hospitals will hire you as a "student nurse extern" after completing one semester of nursing clinicals. I wouldn’t waste my time on trying to challenge a CNA exam…especially since you learned everything a CNA would be taught when you were in your 1st week of nursing classes.

    Instead, start checking hospital websites about student nurse positions. The student externs that work in my unit (and I used to be one) take postpartum patients with an RN, they can give meds (after taking a quick med class the hospital offers….since you’ve already did meds in nursing school), and are also taught how to scrub a C-section, in addition to the basic patient care and lab draws our patient care techs do. It’s a way to secure a position as a grad nurse before you take the boards and I assure you, the pay is way better than a CNA!!

    Easiest thing to do is to call you state’s board of nursing and ask.
