Creative ways to get patient care experience?

[prospectivePA]

Hello! I'm curious about public health fairs? I know that some schools only accept paid hours. But for those that accept volunteer hours, would participating at community health fairs (taking vitals, educating the community, etc.) count toward clinical hours? Thanks

I'm sure you would get some credit for that type of work. Again, it's a question of quality. Much of the time and that work is not spent working directly with patients but doing outreach and education.

I am hoping to get a job as a patient transporter at a large hospital. Has anyone done this for HCE? I am currently working on my Bachelor's and plan to work as much as I can while keeping my grades up. I also plan on getting my CNA in hopes of woring as an ER tech as well. Is one better than the other?

I know its probably one of the most common routes to get PCE, but I got my CNA license extremely quickly (1 week class). But to add an extra dimension to my certification I also became First-Responder certified which qualified me to work as a Trauma Tech in my hospital. Its allowed me to work with and care for a much broader range of patients--everything from chest pain, to appendicitis, to car crashes and gunshots!

Gator, where was this quick course? That is so fast!

Hey! I'm new to the forum. I will be applying to PA school this year and, like many others, am worried about my HCE/DPC! I have my BA Elementary Ed and taught for one year but decided I couldn't do it the rest of my life and be happy (I felt more like a police officer). I love science, like being intellectually challenged, and want to help people. My stepmom (an OBGYN) suggested looking into PA school and the career seems like a perfect fit for me. I have my CNA license and have been working at a psychiatric clinic part-time taking vitals and doing office work. I will start volunteering at the hospital in pre-op next week. I will probably only have 700 hours upon applying. First question: Should I look for another CNA position to supplement? I'm studying for the GRE this semester and want to be successful with that plus my 2 prereq courses while working and volunteering. Second question: Are taking vitals, administering assessments from time to time, and communicating with patients at the psych clinic enough for DPC?

Thanks in advance!:)

Qualifications for getting your CNA vary from state to state. In Florida, I was able to "challenge the boards" and not take a course. I studied YouTube videos on my own, took written and clinical tests, and passed!:) I know some states require a course; I know NY does. The silly thing is that my fellow test-takers paid for a CNA course and then failed the clinical portion of the test. I highly suggest watching YouTube videos on MyCNA and practicing the skills at home!
