If you want to work as a nursing assistant, you must get your name on the state’s Nurse Aide Registry. This can be done by completing a state-certified nursing assistant course and then passing both the written and the skills exams of the license exams. For those who are already working in a license long-term care facility, they will need to do this within 4 months from the start of their work.

The state also allows some qualified individuals to challenge the competency exam without going through a training course. Applicants will need to submit a letter of approval from the office of the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and will only be allowed one opportunity to pass. If they fail they must take a training program to continue.

Another way of getting on the Registry if you are certified in another state is by applying for reciprocity. When applying for Interstate Endorsement, you must comply with its own set of requirements. This option is only available to those who are already a CNA that is registered to a different state’s Registry. Those who are planning to apply must have worked for at least 8 hours within 2 years and must still have an active license/certification.

CNA certification is also not permanent. To renew a license, the holder must have worked for at least 8 hours as a paid nursing assistant within the past 24 months. If you have worked during that time and the Registry has failed to update the individual’s status, that individual must then send proof of his employment so that his status may be prevented from becoming inactive.
