Before you can handle patients as a nursing assistant, you must first have the proper education and training to do so. You can get the training when you enroll in a state-approved CNA program. Your training will be divided into theoretical lessons and hands-on skills training. You will be spending at least 80 hours for both to complete the course.

Once you complete the program, you can then apply for the state competency exams, provided that you meet the other prerequisites. Aside from the completion of the training program, you will also need to pass the background checks that will be done at federal and state levels. In order to determine that you are free from any form of communicable diseases and that you are physically capable of taking care of patients, you must undergo immunization and physical exams. The minor requirements for the NNAAP examination include the submission of your transcript of record, the complete application form, ID photo, fingerprint cards, as well as payment for the exams. You will have 24 months to take the exams. If you fail to take it within that time frame, your application will expire and you will have to submit the requirements again.  For more information, you can contact Pearson VUE at (888) 274- 5050.
