In Reply to: CNA to QMA posted by Michelle on August 07, 2001 at 05:42:23:
: Hi there, I am currently taking a CNA course in Indiana. My goals are to work my way up to become an RN. I plan on taking a QMA course when I am through with getting my CNA certification. I am not sure of the pay scale for CNA or QMA here in Indiana. My instructor said the Indiana is only 1 of 3 states that utilized QMA's, so I can't find any information on the net about it. It's going to be a tough road going to school to get my RN degree, and along the way I am trying to take little steps that with both get me hands on training but also pay more as I go. Is anyone familiar with Indiana and the role of QMA and what you can expect for compensation? Thanks, Michelle
Hi:
Good luck in your schooling. I thoroughly enjoy being a CNA. I work in Home Health and specialize in Parkinson and Dementia Care. I, too, am going on to the next step. I've not heard of QMA. We don't have that in CA that I'm aware of. Please state what the initials stand for?
