To be able to work in the state of Texas as a nursing assistant you must enroll in a certification class and be able to pass the license exams. A license is necessary to find work in the state for more than four months since students are also allowed to work for a brief period during training. Aside from a license, you should also be able to pass the federal and the state background checks.
When you take your class you will have your instruction split between classroom work & lectures and skills practice in a medical setting. School programs are required to be licensed by the Department of Aging and Disability Services and provide a minimum amount of hourly instruction. currently you must go through at least 51 hours of theoretical coursework and 24 hours of clinical practice.
During you skills training you will perform activities such as: catheter care, measuring vital signs, range of motion exercises, transporting patients, dressing, housekeeping, bathing, feeding, practicing the Heimlich maneuver & CPR, emergency care, postmortem care, observing, reporting and psychosocial needs.
After your course your school can setup a date and location for you to take the competency exam. You can also call the Nurse Aide Competency Evaluation Services at 1-800-444-5178 to help you find a testing facility. When you take the exam you’ll notice it contains two different parts, a written and a manual demonstration test. Passing both parts of the exam is necessary before you can receive your certification and be placed on the nurse aide registry. Each applicant is allowed to take both parts up to three times before needing to retake a training course.
Once you pass you will receive your CNA certification within 4-6 weeks and become listed on the registry in good standing. Your active status on the registry must be renewed every 2 years by showing work verification. To check your status on the registry you can call 1-800-452-3934 and enter your social security number when prompted.
