The Nurse Aide Training program educates students in basic anatomy and physiology, restorative services, residents/patient rights, cognitive impairment, mental health and social service needs. Students will learn how to employ infection control practices and provide personal care skills according to individual patient needs. They will also learn how to recognize abnormal changes in body functioning and the importance of reporting such changes.
Our goal is for graduates to meet the program requirements established by the Department of Health and Hospitals (DHH) and to be able to provide basic nursing care to a diverse population with emphasis on the elderly and those who are dependent for personal care.
