Nurse Aide Refresher Course offered at VGCC Franklin Campus


Local nurse aides (CNAs) whose certifications have recently expired or
want to brush up on their skills before taking the state exams can take
advantage of an upcoming course at Vance-Granville Community College’s
Franklin County Campus. 

The two-week Nurse Aide (CNA) Refresher course is scheduled to be held
at the campus near Louisburg, Monday through Thursday from 8 a.m. until
2:30 p.m., Oct. 3 through Oct. 13. Susan English will be the
instructor.

This course prepares students for the North Carolina Nurse Aide
Competency exam and is for students seeking re-listing on the N.C. Nurse
Aide Registry. This course is designed to review the basic concepts and
skills of the Nursing Assistant Level 1 course and to learn about the
state competency testing procedure. In addition to the Refresher course,
VGCC offers two levels of Nursing Assistant training.

The cost of the course is $120 plus a $3 campus access/security fee.
