Although each state has different requirements, they still have common requirements. According to the rules of this state, all those who want to have a career as a nursing assistant must undergo the proper education and take the competency exams afterwards.
You can get the proper education by enrolling in state-approved CNA classes. These programs are offered by different institutions like colleges, high schools, and nursing homes. You can complete a program within 6 months of training; this of course will depend on the curriculum you enroll in. You must complete at least 100 hours’ worth of lectures and 16 hours of clinical duty. During the training you must learn all the 25 basic skills needed for practice. Out of the 25 skills only 5 of them will be randomly tested during the examination.
When you complete your training, you can then apply for the license exams. The exams in this state are conducted by Prometric. Their exams are composed of a written and a skills demonstration exam. When you apply, all you need to do is to submit your completed application form and the needed paperwork.
