Hi! I'm currently a Nursing student at Ocean County College. I know there is already a thread similar to this, but the posts were dated from 2009. I'm looking for more current information. I was wondering if anyone knew any accelerated CNA programs in the Ocean County area? Please and thanks!

Visit NJ department of Health and Senior Service website there is a link where you can fill out an app to become a license CNA. Don't waste your money and time for something you already learned in Nursing school. Good Luck
