About Course

Nursing Assistants are on the front lines of the country s healthcare system, providing direct patient care in every setting – from hospitals to nursing homes. The training to become a certified nursing assistant (CNA) is relatively short and allows students an opportunity to start their careers in a matter of weeks.

The ideal CNA candidate is compassionate and empathetic, with a genuine interest in helping others. In many cases, the CNA provides the day-to-day, hands-on, patient care – assisting with routine daily activities, such as walking, eating, bathing, and using the restroom. CNAs improve the overall quality of life of those suffering from chronic conditions, old age, and injuries.

Note: If you fail either the Florida clinical skills or written CNA state exam at least three (3) times, you must complete a full 120 hour Board approved CNA training program (which is not this course) and retake both parts of the exam. This course only prepares students who want to challenge the nursing assistant examination in the State of Florida to get certified and to be more competitive in the workplace market.
