CNA REFRESHER COURSE

This course is for the certified nurse aides (CNA's) who have not met the requirement that they have been employed to perform nursing tasks in the past 24 consecutive months, or who cannot obtain verification for such employment. The refresher course was developed to give employers another option for updating an aide's eligibility to work. Now a licensed registered nurse may administer a Kansas Nurse Aide Task Checklist - for Employment Verification or the CNA may successfully complete the CNA Refresher Course.
