5.0 out of 5 stars Want to become a CNA?, June 22, 2006

Stephanie Bailey (Buena Vista, CO) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Nursing Assistant: A Nursing Process Approach (Paperback)

This book is a wonderful guide to get you on your way to becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant. This is a wonderful career to have in the medical field. Helping people as a CNA is extremely rewarding.

Even if you're not looking to become a CNA, this book has excellent information for anyone who is in a caregiving situation. It has information ranging from infant care to elderly care.

I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to pursue a career in the healthcare field or anyone who has someone they take care of.
