Requirements to Work as a CNA in Scobey, MT

To work as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) in Scobey, you must meet the statewide CNA requirements set by Montana. These include completing a Montana DPHHS-approved Nurse Aide Training Program (NATP), passing the state knowledge and skills competency examinations administered by D&SDT-Headmaster, and being placed on the Montana Nurse Aide Registry through the Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS).

  • At least 75 total hours of training, including at least 16 hours of supervised practical training
  • Completion of 16 hours of introductory instruction before any direct resident contact
  • Any criminal background checks required by the training program or employer. Training programs may set a minimum age, and some start at 16
  • Passing the knowledge exam (72 questions, 90 minutes, 75% to pass) and the manual skills exam (three or four tasks, 35 minutes, all critical steps plus 80% of remaining steps)
  • Up to three attempts per component within six months of completing training
  • Placement on the Montana Nurse Aide Registry, with certification issued by DPHHS (not the Board of Nursing) through the online BOUNDS portal

Once certified, you may work in nursing homes, hospitals, assisted living facilities, and other healthcare settings throughout Scobey and across Montana. CNA certification must be renewed every two years, and to renew you must have completed at least one 8-hour shift of paid nursing or nursing-related work during the preceding 24 months. Renewals are submitted through the BOUNDS portal and may be started up to 90 days before expiration. Federal rules bar the state from charging a registry fee, but candidates pay the Headmaster competency examination fees ($20 for the written exam or $31 for audio, plus $77 for the skills exam).

Already certified in another state? Montana offers interstate endorsement for nursing assistants who hold a current CNA certification or registration in another U.S. state or territory. Eligible applicants transfer their certification through the BOUNDS portal without completing a new Montana training program or retaking the competency exam. Montana also allows eligible candidates to challenge the competency exam without completing a training program, with one opportunity to pass. Learn more in our CNA License Reciprocity in Montana guide.
