LincolnHealth is accepting applications for the spring Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) class until March 26. The 10-week training begins April 20 and runs until June 24. The class is offered at no cost to the student, and accepted students can apply to ‘earn while they learn’ through LincolnHealth’s apprenticeship program.
Once trained, CNAs work directly with patients and residents to provide assistance with activities of daily living and basic needs. Many of the program’s graduates are currently working at LincolnHealth, providing care at the hospital or in assisted living, long-term care, skilled rehabilitation and memory care facilities. Some graduates have continued their education to become registered nurses, medical assistants, radiologic technologists, or pursued other health care specialties.
