Any CNA’s on here that have any good tips on how to memorize the steps for the skills or any good ways to study for the state test? I want to be certified in the state so I can work in a hospital, but I’ve taken the course almost 5 years ago so I don’t remember everything. Lately, I’ve been taking practice exams online for the written part and doing well, but there’s no way for me to really study the skill part of the exam besides just reading the steps over and over again. Anything helps!!!!

I live in Massachusetts, and I’ve asked if my certificate expires but they told me no, it never expires. Just when I get certified by the state I have to renew it. I would only have to retake the test if i didn’t work in a hospital for 2 years.
