The primary step in becoming a nursing assistant 1 in the state of Oregon is to look for a CNA 1 training program that is approved by the Board. These programs are offered by several institutions such as community colleges, technical colleges, private training centers, hospitals, and nursing homes. Before you enroll in a program, you must make sure that the program is approved by the Board of Nursing so that you will not have any problems when you apply for the license exams.
Medics that were trained in the military as well as military corpsmen that have a total of 400 hours of work experience within the last 2 years are able to directly apply for the license exams. This is also applicable to nursing graduates who have completed their course within the last 3 years. When applying, both must undergo and pass the federal and state background check for criminal records.
You can get the complete Oregon Nursing Assistant application packet by simply going online and download it from the OSBN website at www.oregon.gov/OSBN. You can also use the ones that are given to you by your nursing instructor. When completing the application form, you must make sure that the name you enter on the form is your current legal name since on the day of the exam, you will be required to present two IDs to the nursing assistant evaluator. You will need to submit along with the other documents the payment for the exam and the fingerprint processing.
For first time takers, both the written and the skills evaluation exam will cost $106. The fingerprint processing fee cost $52. For those that requested to have an oral exam instead of the written one, an additional $35. Those who are retaking the exam, they will only need to pay for the exam that they are taking. If you need any special considerations when you take the exam, you must inform the Board during the submission of your application.
