For those who wish to work as a CNA the registry provides helpful links on where to go to become certified. Some states offer applications, practice tests, online downloadable forms, links to state approved training programs and contact information. Many states also provide phone lines to get help from a representative that can answer specific questions about your eligibility. In addition there are automated phone systems available to check your certification status to let you know if you are currently authorized to work.

measuring-health-care-vital-signsIn order to work as a nurse aide in a particular state you will need to meet all of their requirements. Usually this includes submitting identifying documentation, passing a state and federal criminal background screening, passing a health examination, completing a state authorized training program, and passing the license exams. Once you have met all of the requirements you are included on the online registry database and listed with an active status. Those listed can legally work in long-term care facilities, nursing homes, and health care centers through-out the state. Make sure to check with your specific state in order to find out the qualifications necessary and the steps you need to take to become certified.

For employers the registry provides information about whether of not an applicant has an active license status or whether they have received any disciplinary action at any health care facilities. This makes it easy for potential employers to check the background of an applicant and ensure they are legally eligible to work. To determine the nurse aide certification status of an individual they must input the social security number into the appropriate online form. This can be done at any time and these is no fee to receive this information.
