An "Audio" test in English or Spanish may be requested for the Written Test if you have difficulty reading or understanding English. If English is your second language or if you have difficulty reading English, please request the English or Spanish audio test when you submit your application. During the clinical (skills) portion of the test, you will be assigned to perform 3 of skills in addition to proper handwashing and the donning and removal of gloves. During your skill performance, you will observed and critiqued by two (2) nurse evaluators. Successful completion of each skill is required in order for you to pass. Unfortunately, if you miss one required step, you may fail the clinical examination. If you do not pass the examination, you will have to wait 30 days and repay before being allowed to re-test.
