Are you looking for a stable job? Do you want a career that promises plenty of chances to climb up the career ladder? Do you have genuine compassion to care for individuals whom you barely know? If you answered yes to any of these, then you might want to consider becoming a certified nursing aide.

What is a CNA?

A CNA is a person who works under the watchful eyes of registered nurses. These medical workers help provide and maintain nursing and nursing-related care to patients who are in hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities. They perform basic nursing care such as taking vital signs; and help patients in their day-to-day activities such as bathing, toileting, dressing, eating, ambulating, and many more.

How do you become certified to work?

You can only work as a long-term CNA if your name is on the Nurse Aide Registry and if you have a certification. You can gain entry into the NAR by passing the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program Exam or NNAAP exam. This exam consists of a written/oral exam and a skills evaluation test. Candidates who pass both tests are allowed into the NAR. Before you can take the NNAAP exam you must first receive proper training and learn how to become a competent nursing aide. The best way to do this is by enrolling in a state-approved instructional course.

Where can you find a CNA program?

You can find approved and suitable training programs offered by any of the following:

–    Hospitals
–    Nursing homes
–    Assisted living centers
–    Community colleges
–    Vocational schools
–    Technical colleges
–    Private training centers
–    Government organization

Candidates who completed online courses are not eligible to take the NNAAP exam in Wisconsin since online courses do not have the required practical portion of training curriculum that was stated in the Nursing Home Reform Act, which is now part of the OBRA of 1987.

What does CNA training consist of?

Training programs in this state are required to consist of 120 hours. Thirty-two of those hours are required to be allocated to the practical training in a Medicaid/Medicare nursing facility. While in the clinical area, the students are constantly supervised by a clinical instructor who is trained to handle nursing aide students. Depending on the program you choose, it can take you from about 2 to 6 months to complete your training.

When is one qualified enough to skip specific nurse aide training?

There are certain individuals who are allowed to immediately apply for the NNAAP exam even if they do not enroll in a CNA program in Wisconsin. Examples of potential exceptions to the training requirement are:

–    Nursing students
–    Graduate nurses who do not have a license
–    Military trained medics and corpsmen
–    Foreign-educated nurse
–    Out-of-State student nursing aide who has not passed the NNAAP exam
–    A Wisconsin-certified nursing aide with a lapsed/expired certification
–    Home health nursing aide
