Is there any prerequisites in attending a cna program?


Hi, everybody!
I'd like to attend a cna program,but I am not citizen of USA, and I got F2 visa here. I have already got the Bachlor Degree of Law in my country, so I have no experience about nursing. But I am really interested in the cna program. Do you think I am allowed to attend the program?? Looking forward to your reply and thank for all the posts you will give.

You can attend the program but you are not legally able to work in the US with the visa that you have.

And there are no visas available for you to work once you have obtained that training, so it is not going to be beneficial to you at all.

Even the LPN training will not get you a visa to work in the US, only the RN.

Thank you so much! Do you know where will be possible and cheap for me to learn RN program? Does learning a cna program will help me enroll in the RN program? May I apply for practice after I have learned a can program? Thank you very much!
