According to the state regulations, all healthcare personnel who work in a nursing home are required to be listed on the North Carolina Nurse Aide I Registry. These personnel include nurse aides, RNs, LPNs, and medication aides. There are three ways to get into the Registry:
1. Pass a state-approved Nurse Aide I training and the state’s competency test.
2. Directly pass the state’s competency test (which is available for nursing graduates).
3. Directly apply to be entered into the NA I Registry (which is available for North Carolina RNs and LPNs).
The competency exams consist of a written/oral exam and a skills evaluation on the basic nursing skills that were taught during the training. The results of the exams are released within a few minutes after you take the tests. If there are some technical difficulties, your results will be mailed to you within 5 to 7 business days. If the nurse aide candidate passes all the tests, his name will automatically entered into the Nurse Aide I Registry.
Every candidate is given three attempts to pass the written/oral exam and another three attempts to pass the clinical skills test. If the candidate fails after the third attempt, he will be required to enroll again and complete a state-approved program before he can retake the test.
A CNAs name is maintained on the Registry for only up to 2 years. To continue the eligibility of being a nurse aide I in the state of North Carolina, the nurse aide must follow a set of criteria set by the Registry. All 4 of the following must be present in order for the work to be qualified:
• The nurse aide must have worked for at least 8 hours for an approved employer.
• The nurse aide must have worked as a nursing aide for pay.
• The nurse aide must have done nursing aide tasks.
