Elimination

CareBridge Academy future CNAs will learn about patient digestion and elimination. This includes how it occurs, the factors that may affect digestion and elimination, plus how to assist patients to deal with their elimination challenges.

In classes that cover elimination, the aspiring Certified Nurse Aide learns how to help residents with bedpan usage, insertion and maintenance of catheters, and use of a urinal, toilet, or drainage bag. The nursing assistants will learn how to measure the output of waste matter, which is normally a vital indicator of health.

Elimination is a particularly important topic for CNAs that work with the elderly or are employed in long term care settings. This is because older adult patients who suffer with incontinence often become socially isolated. This can adversely impact their quality of life. CNAs must help patients manage incontinence so they can continue to socialize normally.

The school was good as well as the instructor were great. I had a great experience. The school needs to provide parking for students and clinical site was not the best to send students. They also need to fix the heat in the classroom.

I had a great learning experience with Nurse Teel. She was very knowledgeable and I enjoyed every second of the program. Also, before joining the program Nyah helped me with any question I had, she was very informative. The school director Mr. Shay was always helpful, generous and made sure we had what we needed to succeed. The best team of people I’ve ever come across. I’m glad I chose to learn the in’s and out’s of becoming a CNA through Carebridge Academy! I recommend this program 100% to anyone. :)

Great school, love the experience and how professional they are. Ms Teel is an excellent teacher and I really learned a lot about being an NA. You don't just learn from the book but also it's hands-on which I love. Also Ms. Liza was a wonderful clinical instructor. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to become an NA.
