Requirements to Work as a CNA in Winnfield, LA

To work as a Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) in Winnfield, you must meet the statewide CNA requirements set by Louisiana. These include completing a Louisiana Department of Health (LDH)–approved Nurse Aide Training Program, passing the state competency evaluation administered by Prometric or the Louisiana Community and Technical College System (LCTCS), and being listed on the Louisiana Certified Nurse Aide Registry (LCNAR).

  • At least 80 total hours of training (40 classroom hours and 40 clinical hours in a nursing home or hospital-based skilled nursing facility unit)
  • Completion of 16 hours of instruction before any direct resident contact
  • Minimum age of 16 years old to enroll as a nurse aide trainee
  • Passing both the knowledge test (60 questions, 90 minutes) and the clinical skills evaluation (five nurse aide skills)
