One of the LTC facilities in my area is offering paid CNA training, and that sounds pretty good to me. I was planning on doing a CNA course next year in school, but would this be better since it's a) sooner and b) paid training? Also, I assume that after doing the training I would be certified, or would I have to take the exam or what? I'm in NY by the way.
Thanks!

My 16 year old is doing the same thing this summer, CNA training through a temp agency that then places out a the local nursing home. It will be great for her since she thinks she wants to be a nurse not to mention she will make more than she would working at a fast food place this summer.
Go for it, and good luck!!
It sounds great. I just hope that I can do it. I saw it in the classifieds yesterday, but since I'm still in school, it would be a couple weeks before I could do it full time like they want.
I went and applied, and they won't hire me because I'm not yet 18, and they don't hire people under 18.
