Renewing CNA

Hi,

My dh got his cna over 2 yrs ago & never used it. He wants to work as tech while he's in school. How does he go about renewing his license? Thanks

He will have to call the Illinois Department of Public Health. They will tell him if he will be allowed to recertify or not. I just got my packet last week. I worked from '92-'99 as a CNA and haven't worked as one since. They should let him certify and mail him a packet. In the packet, he will get a form to send to Chicago for a background check. He will also have to pass a 21 manual skills evaluation. They will send a study guide for this, along with the names of a few evaluators in your area. Once he passes that and gets his background check form back, he will have to send those to Springfield. From there, he will get a verification form that he can test and will have a form to send off to SIU-C. After that, he will get a form of the dates he can test. The deadline for June testing is May 16th. If he calls and gets everything done, and gets the form to SIU-C postmarked by June 20th, he will be able to test mid July. The lady I talked to was very nice. It did take a while to get through, though.

This site will help if he has questions. There is also a practice exam on here. http://www.nurseaidetesting.com/

Do you know any places currently hiring new cna's?

Where are you at in Illinois?

near downtown/northside

Is that Chicago? I'm near Peoria so can't really help there. Sorry.
