Just For CNA’s: In Service Opportunity

I received an email notifying us of a brand new continuing education web site for CNA’s…literally it’s Just For CNA’s.
In The Know manages this venture, which offers many opportunities for CNA’s to get CE credits at a reasonable cost. This is very important since the state survey processes will be looking more closely at employee records for just this.
Here’s just a few of the titles of the educational modules:
Feeding Your Clients
The Importance of Activity for the Elderly
Using Assistive Devices
Performing Mouth Care
Working With Difficult & Combative People
Understanding Drug-Resistant Bacteria
Understanding Advance Directives
Taking Care of Your Back
There are many more. CNA’s can download these in services, read and study the materials provided then go online and take a quiz. After this, CNA’s are taken to a page that will show them their score and the correct answers to any that were wrong. At this point, a Certificate of Completion is available for download. CNA’s will need this to prove you took the in service.
Each module cost 9.95 and can paid for with a credit card, ECheck or Pay Pal. I think this makes it much more accessible to CNA’s- using ECheck or Pay Pal!
I’ve used Pay Pal for many online purchases and it’s easy to set up an account with them. You deposit funds into an account there as you wish- then the money is available when you need it. It’s just like cash.

Thanks for sharing this site. I can afford one of these a month or so. I do need them too as my employer doesn’t seem to be offering them anymore.
