Good book to review with online practice tests
This was a great book to use with the online workbook chapter test. I was able to take the test following each chapter some of the pages was a little of but okay. Some of the things in the book wasn't really on the test. But it still gave you points on some of the written and definitely most of the clinical part. I took my test and passed.

Great book.
I purchased this workbook for a CNA Program that I recently completed. The book arrived in new condition, and it was very helpful in successfully completing the course. My only recommendation would be that they should add an answer sheet in the back of the book, so that I can check my answers for accuracy.
