WHY BECOME A NURSING ASSISTANT?
Reasons Why You Should Become An NA
There are plenty of good reasons to consider becoming an NA. It’s the fastest way to become a professional member of the healthcare team; no college is required. You can complete a NA training program in 6-10 weeks, and start your new profession immediately.
Training is affordable. Our Nursing Assistant Training Program (NATP) cost is $1,800, plus a $100 non-refundable registration fee. It can also be FREE! Because the demand for NAs is great, some nursing homes and skilled care facilities offer tuition reimbursement, paid employment during training, or free NA classes in exchange for a commitment to work after completing the courses.
Another benefit of becoming an NA is the chance to start a long career in healthcare. An experienced NA has a wide choice of work settings and can specialize in an area of nursing, such as hospice or home health. Or the NA may decide to train as an LPN or RN.
One of the best reasons to become an NA is the satisfaction of making a difference in the lives of patients and residents. They rely on compassionate care from well-trained professionals. As a direct-care giver, the NA spends the most time with patients and residents; no other team member has the opportunity to become familiar with clients and form trusting relationships. Not every day is easy—anyone in healthcare will tell you that–but it can still be rewarding.
