(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 08, 2012 ) Tampa, FL -- Earning a CNA Certification in Florida is a straightforward process that is laid out by the Florida Nursing Assistant Registry, which is part of the Florida Department of Health. The state of Florida offers a few different routes to CNA Certification. In Florida, individuals who wish to become CNAs quickly may choose to challenge the state certification exam without completing a training course. If individuals are confident in their basic nursing knowledge and skills, challenging the exam will be the savviest option, in terms of both saving time and money. The state does recommend that individuals participate in a training program in order to gain the knowledge and skills to be an effective nursing assistant. If an individual challenges the exam and does not pass either part on three tries they will be required to take a state-approved certification training program.
For individuals who have worked as CNAs in other states and are moving to Florida, the process to becoming a CNA is very simple. Florida has reciprocity with other states, which means that individuals who are in good standing with their home state's nursing assistant registry are not required to take Florida's state certification exam before beginning work as a CNA in Florida. As long as individuals are in good standing and actively certified in their home state, they may simply apply to the Florida Nursing Assistant Registry and work legally as a CNA in the state once they have had a Florida criminal background check conducted. This is very convenient for individuals who are relocating and want to find immediate employment.
In Florida, CNA certification also qualifies individuals to work as Home Health Aides according to the Agency for Health Care Administration. This makes CNA certification in Florida even more versatile in terms of the employment options that exist. Florida CNA Certification opens many doors for employment for both residences of the state and people moving into the state.
