KANSAS PROMISE SCHOLARSHIP ELIGIBLE PROGRAM
If you are interested in helping others, are a hard worker and enjoy encouraging that “satisfied” smile from someone in need, then working as a CNA (certified nursing assistant) may be for you. The CNA has the privilege of meeting the basic needs of our citizens who need it most.
This satisfying profession can be a prerequisite for a nursing program, or a stand-alone opportunity. Classes are scheduled at the Winfield Allied Health Education Center, Mulvane Center, and Sumner/Wellington locations and often combine face-to-face learning with online course conten in a hybrid format. In addition to the CNA course, we offer other courses for the currently working CNA:
- The Home Health Aide Class class instructs the CNA how to help elderly, convalescent, or disabled persons live in their own homes instead of in a health care facility.
- The Restorative Aide class trains the CNA to assist therapy departments in long-term care facilities, acute care facilities, and to carry out rehabilitative plans of care in the client’s home.
- The Certified Medication Aide class allows the CNA to pass medications and treatments to long-term care residents.
