Kansas City area MEDS CNA program and United Services

[dbsq44]

Hi all, I'm currently on the hunt for financial aid for the MEDS CNA program near KC, MO. There was a post on here a while back (like 2005 Green Day era back) discussing the MEDS program and I was curious if the information given was still accurate.

Here is what one poster vouched (copy and pasted directly):

"i took my cna through meds last year, i went through the united services. they paid for my classes and my test. then, after you successfully complete your training.they even gave me a check for $650 just for completing! so...you can't beat that deal. Oh, also if you go through the United Services they also give you a scrub voucher that will cover you buying some scrubs. Then, at Meds it also covered you getting your blood pressure cuff and steth."

I was just wondering if anyone knows if this info still applies today? If so, could you help a sister out and walk me through the process of how to go about contacting the United Services and what I need to do to have them pay for my program? Thanks a million in advance!

Why don't you call them?

I have been calling them for about two weeks. It goes automatically to a voicemail and I've left three messages. No one has called me back. I don't live there yet, so I can't just walk in. Wondering if I need to contact an office in a different location or what.
