Being a nursing assistant is one of the best ways for one to enter the medical field. The requirements are simple to complete and it can be a stepping stone for much higher degrees. Most training programs that are approved by the state take only from 2 up to 6 months to finish. State approve CNA classes are required to provide at the minimum 100 hours of instruction including both hands-on experience in a medical setting and classroom course work.
After you meet the school requirement you can submit an application, certification fee, and consent to a background check to be eligible to take the license exams. The MD Board of Nursing oversees the registry that will include you once you pass the exam and become licensed. You will then need to renew your license every 24 months. To learn more you can call a BOD representative at 410-585-1990.
CNA certifications, as well as advance certifications like Dialysis Technician certifications need to be renewed every other year. The state has allowed you to renew your license either 60 days before or 30 days after its expiration date. The expiration date for the licenses in this state fall on the 28th day of the holder’s birth month. One method of renewal is via online. When renewing online, there are several things that you will need to remember like you cannot pay the renewal fee online and then send the application forms to the Board later on. Also, when you choose to renew through the mail, you will need to send a money order along with your application forms.
When you are renewing online, you must:
1. Fill-out all of the data fields on the site.
2. You can either pay using your MasterCard or Visa credit card
3. If you are a MedTech, you will be required to take the online Clinical Update course.
4. For the final approval process, all RNs must log in to the system.
