To become a nursing assistant, you must pass the different requirements. Among them, you must first finish CNA classes that are approved by the GMCF. These programs are offered by different institutions like colleges, high schools, and nursing homes. To complete a program, you must meet the minimum required number of hours, which is 85 training hours. These programs take around 2 to 6 months to complete the training.
All students must be able to complete the lab, classroom, and clinical rotations. Before a student is allowed to proceed for clinical duties, he/she must be able to get a 100% rating in the lab. All programs must have no less than 24 hours of clinical duties. These duties will take place at either a hospital or a nursing home.
After the completion of the training program, all that is left is to apply for the license exams and pass it. The license exams for this state are composed of a written and a skills evaluation on the basic competency skills that were taught in the NATPs. Each applicant will be given 3 chances to pass the exams within one year. After failing the third time, the applicant must then undergo a refresher course.
