There are several requirements that you will need to meet before you will become a CNA in Maine. This includes the completion of a training program. If you are able to complete a program, you will be allowed to work in a healthcare facility as a nursing assistant for 4 months, as well as be able to apply for the license exams. In order to ensure these two, you should only enroll in a program that is approved by the state.

Although these programs are open to almost anyone, they do have requirements that need to be met before they can enroll. Some of the requirements include the applicant to be of legal age and had passed the 9th grade. They should also have a clean background and do not have any felonies. A screening is conducted that includes searching to ensure you have no criminal convictions, employment restrictions, or substantiated complaints on your record. As a nursing assistant, you will be spending your time in lectures, skills training, and clinical duties. State-approved programs are required to offer you a total of 180 training hours. You will need to reach this number in order to graduate from the program. Depending on the program you enroll in, it will take you an average of 2 to 6 month to graduate.

Nurse aides from other states are very much welcome to work in Maine if they wish to do so. Before they are allowed, they must first apply for reciprocity. When they apply, they must have a good relationship with their state as well as a valid license. Having records such as negligence, theft, or malpractice may result in the rejection of their application. You can call a representative of the Licensing and Regulatory Services of Maine at 1-800-791-4080 to get helpful advise and additional details about requirements.
