If you stopped by Mrs. LaKeisha Welch's room today, you may have thought you were at a hospital! Nurse aide students were preparing for their mock drills. These drills must be passed before clinicals can be pursued. Today's practice sessions were based on student-identified areas of weakness. Some of the skills reviewed and practiced were bedpan assistance, bed bathing, and the donning of compression socks. CHS and The DEN look forward to introducing 18 new Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) in May! #TheDEN #collegecommunitycareerready
