The first step on the road to becoming a nursing assistant is choosing a CNA training program to enroll in. You will not be allowed to take the competency examination if you have not received any proper education and skills training. The training program that you enroll in must also be approved by the state. You can only enroll yourself in a program if you are at least 18 years of age and have the ability to read and write. State-approved courses can be completed within 6 months of continuous training. To complete one, you must have at least 75 hours of theoretical classes and 100 hours of skills training. As a nursing assistant student, you will have the opportunity to try out the new skills that you will learn in a real healthcare setting. Your clinical experience will either take place in a nursing home or a hospital.
Aside from the completion of a training program, you will also be required to pass the criminal background checks. You will not be able to proceed and take the license exams if you have records that will prevent you from working in this state. Such records include theft and offenses involving drugs and violence. Other requirements for your application include passing an ID photo, 2 passport sized pictures, transcripts, and the payments for the fees. If you fail any test, you will not be eligible for any refunds on the tests you have not taken yet.
