In order for a nursing assistant program in Hawaii to be state approved, the course must consist of at least 100 hours. The bulk of the hours must be spent in a clinical setting (a minimum of 70 hours). Students will also spend a minimum of 30 hours on classroom training. The state of Hawaii does have regulations which must be adhered to by any nursing assistant training programs, otherwise the programs are not state certified or accredited. Search for programs that are state approved before you start to train for a career as a certified nursing assistant.
The state of Hawaii requires a nursing assistant course to be administered by a registered nurse. The nurse must have at least two years experience in the healthcare industry. It is possible for other healthcare professionals to provide some of the teaching for the class as well as long as they meet any requirements set forth by the state. It is not difficult to work as a nursing assistant in Hawaii if you have already been certified to work as a CNA in another state. Hawaii offer reciprocity for nursing aide certifications. If you are already certified, you will not need to take training course and will not need to take the certification exam in Hawaii. Instead, you will simply need to complete and submit the application of reciprocity and will soon be ready to work as a nursing assistant.
