Re: How does one become a nursing assistant?
Hi, I am also in Texas and worked as a CNA at Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas one summer about 6 years ago. I contacted the hospital and took a course at the hospital that I believe lasted about 3-4 weeks, and we were then certified to work as CNA's in the state of Texas. But considering that it has been a while since I have worked there, I am not sure if they still offfer training at the hospital. You could try contacting HR there to find out if they still offer training for those without experience or looking into one of the CNA programs offered throughout the metroplex. I usually see advertisements for these online and in the newspaper.
