Re: STNA Info/ Rules/ Grandfather Law
Hi. I''m taking the STNA course right now. The answer to your question is, you need to work 7.5 hours in a nursing home every 2 years to keep current on the Ohio State registry. My teacher is a nurse, and she works at the Health Dept. in Bryan. Maybe you could call up there and ask them to make sure we're talking about the same thing, and what to do about it. The receptionist probably won't know what to say, so try calling on Thurs. and asking if there's a nurse there that would help you out with your question. Maybe youhave to retake the test, but not the class, but I really don't think you have to either one! Maybe you have to do something likke when you renew a driver's license or a soc. card, not sure. Definitely try that call, though. Sorry I couldn't help more, and I have no idea if they calll that a Grandfather clause.
