Mark, have you checked into the seminar provided by K&K Consulting in Houston? They don't teach test questions. They teach concepts to apply to any question as well as test taking strategies.

K & K Consulting in Houston provides a seminar to prepare individuals for the state of TX NHA exam and online practice exams.

Harold Batiste has the BEST review course, he is ex-military, in San Antonio and you cannot fail if you go to him. He will provide individual help to you if you take his class, bring your failed test results with you and show them to him. These tests are very difficult, he will help by providing strategies for studying and remembering, as well as overcoming your particular weaknesses (we all have them).

Very interesting skd.....many students who have attended his seminar in San Antonio have passed the state, which is easy, and many fail the NAB. Many that have failed actually have attended K & K Consulting seminar in Houston and passed on the 1st try. Two individuals who attended K & K seminar, previously attended the Batiste seminar and failed the NAB 3 times, passed the first try after attending K & K seminar. By the way, do you know Batiste's pass rate. Stan Mucinic's seminar in Florida has a 95% pass rate & K & K has a 100% pass rate. I wonder what Batiste's pass rate is because the individuals that failed his seminar are attending the other two seminars. I wonder why his pass rate is not on his website.

I need to find out ht ephone number to the state of Texas Boardof nursing home administrators Email is t.churchill@verizon.net

Hello everyone. As I am new to the NHA world in Texas, I have a few questions:

What is the difference between the 200 hrs and 15 credit hrs or are they the same thing?

Is it better to get a certificate (from Midland for example) or degree (from UNT for example)?

Thanks,

Daniel

Creative Solutions in Healthcare based out of Ft Worth has over 50 properties in Texas, many in East Texas and south of Tyler. They do have a good AIT opportunity and are always looking for good talent.

Yes I have. I have heard that Batiste just teaches you to memorize answers while K and K teaches concepts to understand how the NAB rquires you critically think through each answer

I see alot of folks who want to be LNFA, I hope they know what the job REALLY requires. You will get fired and you will quit and you will have rewards. Longevity for LNFA is short, maybe 18months if you have a good survey. You are married to the building, pray for good staff and a good D.O.N. Hopefully your corp folks will support you and let you run your building. In today's homes with all the cuts in Medicare/Medicaid, its all about CENSUS..you gotta have a good marketer and you gotta create a niche for yourself to get those patients in your building. At the end of the day, we all like the warm fuzzy stories of patient care, but your job security is based on budget, census and survey. I just thought I would put that out there. The pay is good but forget 8-5 and golf on week-ends

Mark,
You are so right, that is the best description I have read.

I am looking for enterprenuers in the nursing field. If interested in making 6 figures and working very decent hours and able to invest about 10K please mail me at farayra@yahoo.com. I am an RN with a JD and LLM and can help you become independent owner of a healthcare service that is very lucrative.

LOL Mark. You are correct in some instances. You can increase revenue and decrease expenses or if you are "stuck like chuck" and your census is low, just adjust everything to current census minus 10, and you will do fine. "Heads-in-beds" is not the answer; however, as you know, it is paying "heads-in-beds." Census trends for ALL nursing homes are cyclical. Administrators with extensive marketing and financial management skills are the ones you never see get fired. The question to the Administrator is what are you doing to try to move the census, and while trying to increase census are you financially managing your facility to have a positive bottom line with a profit margin of greater than 20% on a monthly basis.

BTW, did you complete your AIT and did you test??
