The Nurse Assistant Training Program

The Nurse Assistant Training Program will be a hybrid learning experience consisting of two components: theory training and clinical training. Theory training will be conducted through distance learning utilizing the learning management system of Canvas Instructure and Zoom meetings for live, synchronous instruction with the licensed instructor. After theory training is completed, clinical training will take place at our facility, Lakeside Special Care Center.

Both training courses will be conducted Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. for a total of 25 days.
