[Level 2 Nurse Aid Program]
The first part of the process of becoming a nursing assistant is to enroll and complete a 150-hour training course. These hours will be divided equally into lectures/laboratory works and clinical duties. It can take you 4-6 months to complete your training. Before you graduate, you must also pass the final exam.
After your training, the next step is to apply for the license exam. You can either do this by sending your downloaded application packet to the Board of Nursing or coordinate a schedule with your nursing instructor. Aside from paying the initial testing fee of $106, you will also need to send $52 for the fingerprinting process. If you want to take an oral exam instead of the written exam, you will need to pay an additional $32.
The first part of the exam is the written exam, which is also offered in an oral version. In this portion of the exam, you will be given a total of 90 minutes to answer 77 multiple-choice questions. The second portion is the clinical skills tests. You will be asked to perform 5 nursing procedures in front of a nursing assistant evaluator. The first of the procedures will always be proper hand washing. The other four are randomly selected from a set list. You can find a complete list and other information about the exams in the Oregon Nursing Assistant Candidate Handbook (http://www.hdmaster.com/testing/cnatesting/oregon/orformpages/ORCandidateHandbook.pdf).
If you pass all both portions of the exam, you will gain entry into the Nurse Aide Registry and you will receive your nursing assistant certificate. No individual is allowed to work as a nursing assistant prior to being certified. Breaking this law can result in a civil penalty of $5,000.
Your CNA certificate is only valid for 24 consecutive months. A notice is sent out by the Registry at least 1 month prior to the expiration. The expiration of nursing assistant certifications in this state has always fallen on the owner’s date of birth. To renew it, all you have to do is to meet the 400 working hours requirement, pay the renewal fee, and submit the renewal application forms.
