FARMINGTON – Franklin Community Health Network is offering certified nursing aide training as a work-while-you-learn opportunity.
Participants in the 36-hour class will have paid classroom hours for the first 5 to 7 weeks, Monday through Thursday, as part of an accelerated CNA curriculum offered through a partnership with Spruce Mountain Adult Education. It will be followed by paid clinical rotation hours at Franklin Memorial Hospital.
Participants who complete the course and pass the state CAN exam must commit to a year’s employment at FMH.
The expected start date is Feb. 21, and interviews are currently taking place. Six to 10 individuals will be accepted into the program.
This opportunity may be the first of several health care stackable credentials over time to build up the individual’s qualifications to help them move along a career pathway or up a career ladder to potentially different and higher-paying jobs, such as a registered nurse.
