The C N A curriculum covers a broad range of topics, ranging from bathing a patient, positioning in bed, in the chair, abuse and neglect, feeding and dressing a patient, and proper body mechanics for lifting and turning patients. Also, topics such as recognizing depression, dealing with dementia, infection control issues, and catheter care will be fully explored.

CMA

The Kansas-certified medication aide curriculum focuses on the geriatric population in an adult long-term-care versus acute medical care setting. The blueprint for the curriculum serves as the basis for the state-developed standardized test.

CNA Refresher

A refresher course is available for CNAs who have not fulfilled the criteria that they have worked in a nursing setting for 24 consecutive months.

The course is at least five hours for didactic and five hours for laboratory/clinical.
