BNA/CNA Training Class - July 2026

Nursing Assistant Training

Miller's Health Systems provides free training for those interested in becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant.

• Classroom Instruction: Each student is required to complete 36-40 hours of classroom work. All students must pass (with 80%) all tests administered during the classroom portion. (Each student has 3 attempts to pass)
• Clinical Practicum: Each student must complete 75 hours of supervised practicum in a long-term care facility. During the practicum, the student must perform all required skills successfully. The first 16 hours of practicum are with the class instructor. Absence during this time will result in being excused from the program. During the practicum, the student may be assigned to work with a preceptor who will assist the student in organization and time management. At the completion of the program, the preceptor as well as the instructor will be given an evaluation sheet to complete regarding the student's progress during the clinical. All skills checklists (RCP’s) not signed during the classroom must be demonstrated and signed off during the clinicals by the clinical instructor, or other licensed nursing professional. Completed checklist (RCP) must be submitted at the completion of the clinicals with all required skills completed or will not be eligible for the required state exam. A "clinical sign-in record" is supplied to each student. This form must be completed by the student and signed by a qualified licensed professional on a daily basis. The student must include the following information on the sheet: date and actual hours worked, signature of student, cosigned by licensed supervisor.
• Additional Information: Students are required to pass a criminal background check along with a TB test and physical prior to starting the course. Attendance to all classroom sessions is mandatory in order to meet the program requirements as set by the Indiana State Department of Health. Unsatisfactory performance or attendance issues may result in dismissal from the course/program. Students should check with the facility for details on the dress code requirements. When a student successfully completes the course, they will be awarded a certificate of completion, scheduled for a test date, and the test will be paid for by Miller’s Merry Manor if hired and in good standing as an employee. If the student does not pass the 1st test, it may be retaken and paid for by Miller’s a second time. If not an employee, your application and certificate of completion will be given to you to schedule your own test at your own expense.
