Those who desire to be employed as a nursing assistant in Florida must go through proper training and pass the state run examination. Before you are eligible for the exams you must meet several requirements. A few of these are passing criminal background checks, and completing a course approved by the state. Generally classes will provide hands on skills practice using common procedures and techniques used in medical facilities. In addition to that students will receive theoretical training in a classroom environment to help prepare for the exams and working under the direction of nurses.

Once you have finished the course you can set a date to try and pass the license examination.
