I am a nursing student may I be a Certified Nurse Assistant?
Individuals who are enrolled in an RN or LPN program
for at least four months and who have successfully completed a Fundamentals of
Nursing course that included a clinical rotation may request to challenge the
CNA. Challenging means you don’t have to take the entire 175 hour course,
but may test out. (Submit the following documentation: an official copy of your
transcript and a signed letter on school letterhead from the nursing program
director verifying a clinical rotation has been completed with the fundamentals
of nursing) Once the information is received and verified, a response will be
sent within seven (7) to ten (10) business days.
