Nursing Assistant Training (NAT) and Home Health Aide (HHA)
Classroom, Lab & Clinical "hands-on"
training!
Our mission is to prepare nursing assistants that have the skills to work in healthcare agencies and/or the home environment. Our program is client centered and focuses on teaching students how to meet the needs of the client in a long term care agency, a hospital or in the community. We believe that it is the right of every client to receive quality nursing assistant/Home Health Aide care from trained personnel. We prepare our students through planned classroom theory, lab instruction and experience in the hospital/long term care facility to give care in a holistic and professional manner.
C&S Healthcare Training and Staffing focuses on basic nursing assistant/Home Health Aide skills which include all elements of safety measures, personal care, vital sign measurement, communication, infection control, nutrition and resident's rights. Our curriculum has a special focus on the geriatric client and the client with Alzheimers Disease or related dementias.
The state certification exam, which students may take after successful completion of the course. Students will be required to create an account with TMU (TestMaster Universe) online. Headmaster is a new platform launched in 2022 that performs all existing functions of the WebETest© platform, plus much more. As all testing, training, aid, and certificate information exists within one platform, TMU (TestMaster Universe©), it streamlines the testing process by eliminating the need to move between databases and enables more timely issuance of testing certificates. Students and candidates have easier access to their training aid testing records, encouraging more student/candidate accountability. TMU© is designed to run in newer web browsers and current operating systems. This will allow some tasks to be completed on smartphones and add SMS notification options for candidates. CSHTS will provide more information about the certification test and assist students in completing the Prometric testing application during week four of the program
DAY SESSION- 114 hours
Nursing Assistant (NA) is six weeks, 134-hour program which combines classroom hours, lab hours and clinical hours. After the fourth week, students attend an additional 16 hours of Home Health Aide training. Students are in the classroom and/or the lab every day for the first part of the program. Morning classroom hours are 9:00 am to 1:30pm four days a week.
Ultimate Test Prep-
To be a Certified Nursing Assistant, the students will need to take the state Examination which is divided into two sections, the Knowledge (written) examination and a clinical skills test. Students must successfully pass both sections to earn the CNA certification. In most areas the student must pass the Knowledge with a 75% or higher. In most areas the student also must pass the clinical skill portion with an 80% or better, and also demonstrate that s/he can follow each critical step with 100% accuracy.
The written examination will be given in a multiple-choice format similar to tests the students have taken in the class. The clinical skills portion is broken down into “checkpoints” or skills that are performed in front of a skills evaluator. The student’s demonstration of the skills does not have to be perfect, but they must show the portion of the step that is considered critical, which usually involves personal or patient safety or infection control. They will be allowed to correct themselves if they miss a step during a particular skill until they have proceeded to the next one.
State Exam Preparation
After the six weeks of completion CSHCTS continued to provide additional assistance free of charge to make sure they are well prepared for the state exam; CSHCTS provides a set of study guides and quizzes to prepare the students for the knowledge portion; there are instructors on board more than 90% of the times to monitor the students during their preparation weeks for the state exam and the students are allowed to come in the school after graduation to use the lab at their convenience for free
