Before you are allowed to take care of residents, you are required by the state to train in a CNA course that’s approved by the state. You can find these courses anywhere in the state and offered by technical colleges, high schools, community training centers, and certain healthcare centers.
You must be at least 16 years old to be accepted in any course and be physically capable of handling patients. When you are selecting for a program to enroll in, you should only consider those that are approved by the state to make sure that you will be allowed to apply for the competency exams afterwards.
When you enroll in a program, your hours will be divided into lectures and skills training. These courses are required by the state to offer at least 40 hours of training. The students must also have the chance to work at an actual clinical healthcare setting. These experiences are believed to lay out a solid foundation for the future nursing aides. When they are in the clinical area, they will be placed under the care of a registered nurse or another member of the healthcare team such as an LPN or physician.
After completing the course, you can then send in your applications along with the needed documents. The most important requirement to have when applying is the results for the background checks for criminal records. If you fail the checks, you will not be able to take the exams nor will you be allowed to work in any healthcare facility as a nursing aide. If you finished a nursing assistant training program that is not in the state of Illinois, you can apply to the state for reciprocity.
