does anyone know where i can find info on nursing assistant programs in northern nh? i am in the conway area, and traveling as little as possible is great though at this point i am almost willing to do anything. i had a website i looked at before and i could have sworn i added it to my favorites but it is nowhere to be found. it was a website in blue that showed dates of programs and where they were offered. they also offered medical assistant training and some other training.. i just can't seem to find it on the www.
i have decided i am miserable in my job, and i need to do something now. i signed up for my first course to start working toward my rn but i think i should become a cna or lna (same thing really) asap, where i can be happier and also possibly get tuition assistance. but i just have to save the $$ to pay for the program and be able to take enough time off from work to get the training done, and then hopefully start work as a cna/lna right after i was done training.. i just need to get out of my line of work. i cannot stand it, i thought i could handle it through school but i just can't. :angryfire any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!
****************ok sorry, i found a site but it isn't the one i was looking for.. i could have sworn it had places closer to me than it lists, but.. are there any that anyone knows of that are closer than manchester? i am in conway so it's a haul..
