Nurse Aide Training Program
AFFORDABLE QUALITY HANDS ON TRAINING
A Nurse Aide Training Program (NATP) is a state licensed program which is Nursing Home Facility based or non-Nursing Home Facility based and offers training to candidates that desire to become eligible for certification as a certified nurse aide. Michigan requires a minimum of seventy-five (75) hours of training. Sokol HealthCare Training's NATP meets this requirement. Our NATP consists of thirty-four (34) hours of classroom theory instruction, sixteen and a half (22.5) hours of documented skills practicum, and twenty-four and a half (18.5) hours of clinical rotation in a nursing home facility supervised by an approved Registered Nurse.
A theory classroom average of “C” (75%) and a competency in lab skills of “Satisfactory” (100%) is required to proceed to a clinical placement. In addition, students must provide documentation required by the healthcare facilities on the dates determined by the Program.
Students completing the Program are eligible to receive a graduation certificate from Sokol HCT and take the State’s Certified Nurse Aide Competency Evaluation Examination. Students with a Certificate of Training are able to go to work immediately while waiting to take their State Certification.
