Posted about 1 year ago Hi there, Ive recently been accepted a job as a hca but been put on the waiting list and been there for 2 months now. There is also a college course i wouldnt mind doing to acsess me to nursing at uni but cant afford not to work! Do you get training on the job as a hca? as this would suit me better or do i give up the chance of getting through the door and struggle with money?? Help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!! |

| Posted about 1 year ago Hi, Emm. Welcome to ProNurse, it's good to have you with us. You will get "on the job" training as an HCA and you could do your access to nursing course as well as working. Good luck and take care. Mo x. Mo. Forum Leader on ProNurse. |

| Posted about 1 year ago Hi i would love to be a H C A out in the community i have N V Qs 3,4,RMA during my time as a manger i supported the nurses who call ed the home with small wound care and dressing changing as sometimes my clients who suffered dementia need support i work as a senior care now ( too much P A work not enough hands on care being a manger ) i have a disabled partner so need to work 30 hrs a week but times are as and when needed on a rota do you think i would be wasting my time writing a letter to all the local doctors as gong down the college route is not a option as two days study in college two days placement with a surgery plus the four days i work now any feed back would be must excepted |
