Red Cross CNA Training

Did you know that many American Red Cross chapters offer CNA training? The Red Cross nursing assistant training programs are designed to prepare individuals to provide quality care for clients in nursing communities, hospitals and other health care settings. There are three main reasons why becoming a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) might be a good way to get started if you are thinking about a career in health care.


First, job opportunities for nursing assistants are increasing as the population ages and baby boomers, those 76 million Americans born between 1946 and 1964, start to retire. A second important reason for becoming a CNA is that nurse assistant training requires a small amount of money and just a few weeks of time for classes and practicals. Last but not least, many registered and practical nurses got started in the health care field as certified nurse assistants.


There are a couple of reasons why Red Cross CNA classes are a good choice for most individuals and a logical place to get trained as a nurse assistant. Besides the fact that the high quality of training the American Red Cross gives their students instills confidence in the individual and adds to his peace of mind, the CNA training provided by Red Cross also covers all the knowledge and skills needed to become a certified nurse aide and deliver basic care and support for patients in hospitals, clients in nursing communities, or at home.


CNA certification and training requirements differ from state to state but the Red Cross classes are designed to meet the requirements of the state in which the chapter is located. Furthermore, the organization has been involved in health care and nursing for more than 100 years, and has offered CNA training for the past twenty years. Last but not least, American Red Cross has a strong tradition of nursing and the Certified Nurse Assistant training program is offered in 36 cities across the nation.
