COURSE DESCRIPTION

North Bay CNA Part Time Training Program is a 12 Week (weekends only) California State approved program from start to finish.

It’s challenging and rewarding.
Our CNA Training Program in Sonoma County, will prepare you with the information, knowledge, skills and experience you will need to be a Nurse Assistant, providing quality care for residents/patients in long term care facilities, hospitals and home care.

CERTIFICATION

North Bay CNA Training Program will arrange for you to take the California State Competency Exam. There are several places offering the test in Santa Rosa, as well as across the bay area and east bay. The student will be required to demonstrate the practical training he or she learned. The state examiner will test and determine if the student is ready to become a Certified Nursing Assistant. The student will be asked to perform 3 of the 25 skills that he/she learned during the program. In addition to the practical portion of the state test, the student will be required to take a written exam, which will consist of the theory portion of our program. There are also practice exams which will prepare you for the state written exam.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The student will first read and learn through lecture, how to:
