Sertifikat o Stručnosti u Medicinskoj Tehnici

Become a Certified Nursing Assistant and enjoy the rewards of this front-line medical field. This program prepares you to work in a home or hospital and perform everyday living tasks for seniors, chronically sick, or recovering patients who cannot care for themselves. Plus this is the first step to becoming a registered nurse, and you can actually earn while you learn. The Certificate of Proficiency in Nursing Assistant provides students with academic and clinical education in nursing-related services for long-term residents.

The program focuses on classroom and lab training including communication skills, infection prevention and control, safety/ emergency procedures/residents’ rights, personal care, basic nursing skills, and basic restorative services. The final weeks allow the students to practice their classroom and lab skills under instructor supervision in long-term care facilities. Upon successful completion of this semester program, students will receive a certificate of proficiency and will sit for the State of Arkansas CNA exam.

Originally established as a vocational-technical school, Mid-South Community College became a comprehensive community college in 1992 and began with 139 students in the fall semester of 1993. Today, like Arkansas State University Mid-South, we serve more than 1600 students annually in credit and non-credit training programs.

There are a thousand ways to express the ASU Mid-South culture, but we have chosen this starfish story because it relates so closely to what we do. Every time we help someone succeed, sometimes against what may seem like impossible odds, we are giving that person a new lease on life. We’re going to do whatever it takes to overcome challenges to deliver to our students the kind of results they need to change their life. It’s not just about going through the motions. It’s about doing whatever is required to ensure students can be successful. At Mid-South, we believe we have a moral obligation to take care of the people who live here. Just as the little boy knew he couldn’t save every starfish washed up on the shore, we know that we can’t save everyone. But every time we help someone towards a brighter future, we have won a major victory for that student. And it doesn’t just stop there. It’s also a win for their family, our community, our nation, and our world.
