Where to get CNA class in Chester County

Published

Hello! I am looking where to get CNA classes and I'm really having a hard time. I called DCCC and I was told that they don't offer CNA classes anymore. I'm a stay home Mom and right now I'm looking for a job where I can work part-time or on weekends. Does anyone know where I can get a free CNA class or places that offer the class in Chester County. I would really appreciate your help!

I am not sure but check with Brandywine Hospital, I know they have LPN. If they don't offer CNA ask them to refer you, they were very helpful when I called them during my R.N. program search. Good luck.

Brandywine Hospital does not offer LPN classes they only have RN I just graduated from there. CAT Brandywine which is votech of coatesville school district they have LPN classes.

Tel Hai Retirement in Honeybrook is a long term care facility that offers free cna classes and you work for them. They have part time and cna's as needed basis but you have to remember part time and pool do not offer insurance. If you are interested please feel free to PM me

Hi emilysmom,

Thank you for the reply. I am definitely interested on this. We're okay with insurance, my husband got us covered. Sorry, I'm new to this forum so I'm not sure what PM means :mad:? Regards.

Other nursing homes have had classes at other times - so I would also check with a local ltc facility if you would like to work there and see what they recommend. I would recommend going through one of the nursing home based programs because chances are you will be paid for your time in class.
