Certified Nurse Aid

As the U.S. population continues to age, there is a growing need for those who are committed to the care of the elderly. The Austin Community College Certified Nurse Aide program has been created to help meet this pressing need. We are committed to educating entry-level nursing assistants by helping them achieve the level of knowledge, skills and abilities required to provide the basic care required by residents of long term care facilities.

In addition to long-term care, CNA's are also hired at hospitals, home care settings, hospice, and is a pre-requisite to other healthcare programs such as nursing and sonography.
