Nurse Aide Training Programs in Pennsylvania
How can you verify a nurse aide certification or CNA registration number in Pennsylvania? To make it convenient for individuals and employers, the verification of a nurse assistant registration on the Pennsylvania CNA registry can be conducted entirely online. To complete the process you will need to provide personal information such as date of birth, first and last name, and registration number. If you are a certified nursing assistant, you can access the registration number simply by entering your personal information. An employer may verify your status on the nurse aide registry using the CNA registration number or using personal information.
Certified nurse assistants who wish to update their address information or to request a duplicate registration are encouraged to do so by using the convenient, online services provided by Pearson Vue. The state of Pennsylvania enforces the process of reciprocity, through which a nurse aide may transfer her CNA certification from another state and be eligible for employment in Pennsylvania. To qualify for reciprocity one must be active and in good standing on their home state CNA registry. Reciprocity begins with contacting the Pennsylvania CNA registry and requiring a nurse aide certification transfer application.

Nursing assistant programs prepare individuals for challenging the nurse aide certification exam and for entry level positions in health care environments. Each state has the authority to decide how many hours of training a nursing assistant course must consist of, as long as the minimum federal requirement of seventy-five hours is met. Students interested in attending CNA classes have a wide array of choices when it comes to selecting a training facility.
Nursing assistant courses are conducted at nursing homes, vocational schools, private schools, and community colleges. Program length, admission requirements, and cost of training vary depending on the policies of every training facility. Several states have implemented legislation which requires licensed long-term care facilities to reimburse CNA employees for the costs associated with training. An individual who has paid for nursing assistant training classes and who becomes employed by a nursing home within a year of obtaining certification, is eligible for financial reimbursement. Compared to other training programs in the health care field, nursing assistant classes are relatively short and inexpensive. Obtaining state certification as a CNA is the main requirement for securing a nurse aide job at a nursing home, hospital, rehabilitation or skilled nursing facility.

Are there any free CNA programs or employer paid CNA classes in Philadelphia?

Free CNA training is provided, in general, by licensed nursing homes. You can search our listing of state-approved nurse aide training facilities and choose nursing homes which are close to where you live. Contact them by phone or stop by their facility and inquire about upcoming nurse aide training classes. They will let you know if there are any upcoming classes scheduled, what you need to enroll, how long the program is, and other relevant information. Good luck!
