classroom lessons with field experience (“clinicals”)
for the best training available in the NAT field. Upon
graduation and the passing of the state certification
exam, Nurse Assistants can go to work in hospitals,
nursing homes, or assisted-living facilities. Classes
meet Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM until 2:00 PM.
