I had planned to do some more research about this school and wanted to come and take a look at the reviews left by previous students to get an overall feel of what to expect and I must say I’m appalled by the responses from the “owner”. There were a few comments made about whomever is answering calls for the school, being rude. Upon looking at the responses I can pretty much guarantee that the person answering the phone is very rude giving the sarcastic and rude remarks made to people who had something negative to say about it. Telling someone they need to “speak facts” or they “obviously” have the wrong school does not make me WANT to speak with the person who claims they are not rude. I’m very sad to say this deterred me from seeking further information. I’m sure this will also receive a snarky remark which will further prove my point

Great class. I received my CNA license in 30days and was hired on the spot once I passed my State Exam. I have been a CNA for two years now and love every bit of it. Mrs.Studstill literally gives you all the tools you need to pass her course. She is the reason why I continue to pursue a career in nursing.

Absolutely, go to this school if you want an instructor that genuinely wants you to get yours. In addition to acquiring your CNA you will learn life skills that will help you when you get out there in the field. I am very impressed with the school and thank Mrs. Studstill for everything shes done. I dont even think she knows how good she is as a human being and an instructor.😉. Nothing but good things to say

This is one of the best schools in Columbia sc, the teacher is amazing she takes her time with you making sure you get the information to pass. She really care for her students its not about the money with her if she see you struggling she will help you thats why Im giving Carolina nursing assistance 5 stars best school to go to.

This is an awesome school with an amazing program. Mrs. Studstill is the best on so many levels. I am a former student “2014” and to this day she is my go-to person. I have and always will refer anyone with the desire to become a certified nursing assistant ... WARNING... “She’s tough but good”. It’s the type of tough that challenges you⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I really enjoy this course I learned a lot and now have a different perspective on CNA

I had a fantastic experience attending CNAPA. The instructor taught me the necessary skills in an interactive and approachable environment. She leads by example and goes beyond what I would expect of a normal teacher. You can tell she is a very experienced instructor because she teaches not only from the book but from her own personal experiences as a nurse. She has been through all of this before and will work WITH you to ensure that you succeed in her class. I would recommend this to any of my friends wanting to start in nursing or wanting patient care experience for medical or grad school.

This school is fantastic! The tuition is more than reasonable and the level of preparation provided to students absolutely incredible. I had no problems passing the CNA certification test the first time. The instructors (licensed, practicing nurses) care deeply about each student. They not only thoroughly prepare students for the exam, but also for a career in providing quality, compassionate, personalized care to our treasured elderly citizens. The program director / lead instructor is widely known and highly regarded in the nursing community, Ive discovered. Her recommendation means a lot. She helps students identify and even puts them in contact with good potential employers, especially students who exhibit a strong work ethic and show they are serious about the quality of their work.

Excellent environment, very informative and engaging class! I love it!

Really good school! Mrs. Studstill is a wonderful teacher!

This is a great school to attend The teachers are excellent I had fail the state board test twice before coming to this school

Where do I start? This school is Amazing.when I first started I was thinking it’s No way I could learn all this in a month ,but with the Teachers you have Mrs.Studstill and Ms.Hayes you will have all the knowledge you need as a CNA .You do the work and studying you will definitely pass

My learning experience at the Carolina Nursing Assistant Program was truly an enjoyable learning experience.Mrs Studstill and her instructors made the material presented easy to comprehend while maintaining an enjoyable learning environment. I feel fully capable of performing the tasks I learned in a real work environment.Thank you Mrs Studstill and your staff...youre the best

When I entered into CNAPA and started talking with Mrs. Studstill about her CNA and Medication Aide classes. I knew this is where I wanted to be and to learn from someone that is going to give tough love. Mrs. Studstill is very thorough when providing the information in class.You have to be ready to go all in, stay focus, and have the passion for the healthcare field. It may seem challenging, but you will survive and become the CNA or Medication Aide that you need to be in the healthcare world. You will greatly appreciate Mrs. Studstill when it is all over.I wish that she could teach all of us on how to become an LPN or RN. Thats how great of teacher she is. She knows the healthcare field and not afraid to help prepare you for it. Mrs. Studstill, thank you for all that you have taught me. I am going to miss seeing you weekly. Many blessings to you and your family.

I attended Carolina Nursing Assistant Program to update my CPR and the teacher Mrs. Studstill is great. I enjoyed the CPR class so much I attended the Med Tech class. If you are looking for CNA training, CPR, or Med Tech you need to attend here. Mrs. Studstill is Awesome

The best Nursing Assistant Program ever ! Mrs Studstill gets you mentally and physically ready for state boards and the field you desire to have a career in!

Mrs Studstill you’re the best and I’m greatful to be one of your students may the good Lord bless u more so u can continue to help others

Called to get more information about the program and the lady on the phone was rude as hell. Lol ill be looking somewhere else. Perhaps yall need to find someone else to answer the phones if yall want to make a good first impression😂

This is a amazing school the instructor is amazing she has made a big impact in my life I thank her soooo very much and loveeeee her so much. If CNA is something you’ve been thinking about and debating on for years this is the place to go!!!!

I needed to get patient/healthcare experience for graduate school, so I chose to attend CNAPA for the CNA and CPR classes. The school was nice, clean and neat. It was also well organized and equipped with everything necessary to practice the nursing skills. Having started the program with zero experience, I was nervous about the state board exam. However, on the exam day I felt confident and passed. With what I learned here, I have been able to get the experience I needed to apply to grad school. Needless to say, Mrs. Studstill is an awesome instructor as she is very knowledgeable and has the experience to back it up. She and her team are providing a great service helping many people obtain their goals.

BEST DECISON EVER, MRS. DUGDONS AND MRS.STUDSTILL WERE AWESOME! I HAVE HAD MY CNA FOR OVER 4 YEARS AND LANDED A JOB AS A LEAD ER TECH SOON AFTER GRADUATION FROM THE PROGRAM. IF SUCCESS IS WHAT YOUR LOOKING TO DO THAN CNAPA IS THE PLACE TO BE.

Very rude when she answered the phone. Need to work on Phone etiquette.

Such a wonderful experience...I wanted to make sure I was ready for Nursing Clinicals & decided to go to CNAPA, Mrs Studstill is so amazing, she’s an inspiration bc as busy as her schedule is, she devotes time to each student introducing them to the world of nursing. The program helped me transition to clinicals. I learned so many skills, and also how to communicate with other healthcare professionals. If you are considering a career in the Medical Field, from nursing to PA this program will help you. Nursing is so much more than just passing medications and the endless possibilities are amazing and having a teacher like Mrs Studstill helped me to see that. She’s amazing yall

Today, I officially became Candace Wells, CNA, MT.A 5 star review is simply not enough when it comes to rating this school. CNAPA far exceeded my expectations. Very neat and clean atmosphere, professional staff and TOP NOTCH instructors. If you are looking to further your education in the medical field, this is your one stop shop! CNAPA offers plenty of continuing education for students like me, who just cant get enough! Phlebotomy, Medical Assisting, CNA just to name a few... You are worth your investment! Invest in a school that spends time investing in YOU! Thank you to everyone at CNAPA for your dedication, encouragement and professionalism.

Mrs. Studstill is an amazing teacher and this school is the best place to go!
