CNA Test Prep Classes

Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) is a great entry-level career in medicine.  CNAs assist patients with personal care skills and observe for changes in the patient’s condition and report those changes to the nurse.  CNAs must be caring, professional, observant, patient and knowledgeable.  Want to know more about CNAs?  Click Here.

The CNA Test Prep program covers basic anatomy and physiology, customer service skills, infection control, general healthcare topics, safety and personal care skills such as bathing, grooming, toileting, feeding, dressing and movement focusing on client needs in clinical settings.

The CNA certification is required for employment in most clinical settings, including hospitals and nursing homes.

The CNA Test Prep Class is offered monthly.  This class is not licensed and is designed strictly to prepare a student for the CNA State Exam.  There are NO educational requirements for those wishing to take the CNA exam.  This class will prepare you for that exam.  The class consists of:

What is the difference between a CNA Test Prep and a CNA program?

CNA programs are 120 hour courses that include both theory (classroom learning) and clinical experiences (practicing skills on live patients in nursing homes or hospitals).  These programs are licensed by the state and Board of Nursing as approved programs.

CNA Test Prep classes provide intensive, focused training on specific patient care skills in a clinical lab (classroom) setting.  Test Prep classes do not practice these skills on live patients in outside settings*.  Instead, the skills practice is performed under the close supervision of the instructor in a clinical lab (see picture on left) who will assure that the skills are learned properly and performed according to state standards.

Both methods are acceptable forms of training for CNA students.  Regardless of training method, all students will take the same CNA state exam, consisting of both a written test (60 question, multiple choice) and clinical test (3 skills to perform).  Both sections must be passed to become licensed as a CNA in the state of Florida.

CNA Test Prep programs, for some students, may be a faster, more economical way of obtaining a CNA license.
