Student CNA Class May 2024 - NHC Somerville

Thank you for your interest in taking the state certified nurse aide training program. Our program is a fast-paced class that is completed in two weeks. To be considered for the class, you must provide the following at the time of your interview:

• Completed Application
• Valid Photo Identification
• Social Security Card

Since the class is only 10 days (Monday-Friday for 2 weeks), ZERO absences or tardiness is permitted. You must maintain a grade average of an 85 to continue in the course.

Books and Supplies ($40) will be needed as a deposit on the first day of class and will be returned upon graduation! You will be required to purchase one set of scrubs to wear every day to class and clinical.

We will run a criminal background check as well as consult the Tennessee and/or National Abuse Registry for Children and Adults. No one with a felony conviction, certain misdemeanor charges, and/or found on the abuse registry can be admitted to the class.

If you have been accepted into the class, a brief orientation will be held at 10am the Friday after the class begins.

Students are chosen based on the facility need, shift availability of the candidate, entrance exam score, flexibility of the candidate, previous work history and attitude. The best qualified candidates for the class will be chosen.

Employment Opportunities

Employment opportunities may be available upon successful completion of the course.
