The only way for you to be able to work in Mississippi as a nursing aide is to get a CNA certification. The certifications are only given to those who have met both the Federal and State requirements in training and testing. With the training durations for this state, you can become a nursing aide in a matter of 6 months.
The license exams are composed of two parts, a written exam and a skills demonstration. The written exams can also be replaced with an oral examination. This portion contains 60 multiple-choice questions that must be completed within 2 hours. During the exams, the examiner will inform you and your fellow applicants when there is only 15 minutes left in the exams. For oral exams, there is an additional portion where the applicant will be tested if he/she is familiar with the common terms used in the healthcare facility.
The second part of the tests is the skills evaluation. In this portion, you will be placed in an area that will resemble an actual healthcare situation and setting. During this time, you will be asked to perform randomly chosen nursing skills that are taught in training programs.
To pass the license exams, you will need to pass all the tests. Once you pass, you name will be added to the state’s Nursing Aide Registry. You will also receive a certification that has your name on it.
