Your first step in becoming a nurse aide is choosing a nurse aide program that you will enroll in. The program has to be state-approved so that you can make sure that you will be allowed to take the license exams after you complete your training. These programs are being offered by colleges, high schools, and certain healthcare institutions. They offer the students 75 hours of classes and 100 hours of hands-on training.

As a nursing student, you will be taught in different necessary skills that you will use to take care of the patients like vital signs taking, bed bath, catheter care, offering and removing a bedpan, assist in ambulation, dressing, performing ROM exercises and other basic care skills. While still a student, you will already have the opportunity to experience firsthand what a real clinical area is like. You will be placed under the supervision of a registered nurse working there or a trained member of the healthcare team. This type of experience will give you a strong foundation for your career. For more information, you can call the Florida’s Nurse Aide Registry at (850) 245-4567.

After the completion of your training, you can then apply for the state’s license exams. This step is a necessary one since Florida does not allow its CNAs to work without one. If you pass all the tests, you will get your certification/license 14 days after taking the exams.
