Nurse Assistant Accelerated (CNA Training)
Total 88 hrs.
Program Training Plan
Students are trained under the direction of a licensed nurse in patient physical, emotional, and social care. Classroom theory and clinical experience in a health care facility is provided. Often the clinical experience will not be scheduled at the same time as class. When students pass the course and the state exam, they will be a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), and qualified to take jobs at assisted living centers, long term care centers, home health agencies, and hospitals. Most LPN and RN training institutions require a CNA Certification as part of their prerequisites. Healthcare Provider CPR certification through the American Heart Association will be taught as part of the course curriculum.
