CNA Certified Nursing Assistant Exam Cram
by Linda Whitenton and Marty Walker
Site Price: $16.10 (regularly $29.99)
A review from Amazon:
The book is really concise. Less fluff is good when you’re short on time. Each chapter has 10 review questions with rationales so I found it really helpful to go through the book only twice to be comfortable. I recommend it as a refresher course and as a hardcore study tool because it covers many different topics for the CNA exam. I haven’t found any mistakes in rationales or typos like other books either.

A Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) usually works under an LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) or RN (Registered Nurse), but there is still an exam to pass before earning a job in the field.
Usually, CNAs can work in a variety of locations, like hospitals, adult day care centers, nursing homes, and personal homes. A CNA spends more time with a patient than an LPN or RN, so they need to have good people skills, able to listen to patient complaints as well as help in any way a patient may need.
