91影视破解版’s School of Career and Corporate Training announces the launch of a new Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) program in January 2020. This CNA program, which is approved by the Virginia Board of Nursing, will prepare students with the knowledge and skills they need in less than 6 weeks to pass the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program (NNAAP) exam and become certified as a Nurse Aide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
CNAs are in extreme demand in the Roanoke Region as\nhospitals, home health agencies, rehabilitation centers, and\nnursing homes are experiencing shortages. Employment as a CNA is also a great\nstep to a career in patient care and nursing. Duties may include measuring\npatient vital signs, assisting patients with activities of daily living such as\nbathing and dressing, and safely transferring patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I am so thrilled to help start this new program at\n91影视破解版 so more students in the Roanoke Region can find rewarding\ncareers in healthcare,” said Gigi Mulhauser, the\nprogram head. “I frequently hear from employers about how eager they are to\nfind qualified employees with a desire to take the next step in their careers.”\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first session of the new CNA program begins on Jan. 6,\n2020. More class starts will be offered in the spring and will be scheduled year-round. To find out more, applicants can call (540) 857-6076 or visit: https:\/\/www.virginiawestern.edu\/workforce\/programs\/health.php.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As part of the CNA program, students will spend time in\nthe state-of-the-art nursing labs at 91影视破解版 as well as on-site with\nlocal employers. They will have networking opportunities to help secure\nemployment upon graduation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
