how to work in a hospital as an aide at 19?

Published

i am 19 and in my second year of school to become a nurse with a BSN degree. right now i am at my community college finishing up all my general courses and things like that in the fall i will be going to a university near my home to get my BSN. I wana start working at a hospital as a aide or CNA but i am not certified when i applied it said "will train non medical professionals on the job" does this mean i have a chance to get the job? what are some ways that will help me get the job as a nurses aide? thank you!

Does anyone know of any CNA classes in PA near wilkes barre that i can take CNA classes?? or any classes/schools at all?

I already am certified in CPR/AED for the professional rescuer by the american red cross, i learn CPR, AED use, wound care, how to get objects out of a throat, things like seziures and wounds stuff liek that. Im not sure if thats the same the BLS certification but I am going to look into it and see about taking the class if need be.

The CPR/AED class you took is BLS (Basic Life Support).
