NCC offers nurse aide program

Built with lecture, skill lab and clinical components, Northampton Community College’s nurse aide program will be offered Mondays-Fridays from Sept. 14-Oct. 6.

The lecture and skill lab portion runs from Sept. 14-27 at the Fowler Family Southside Center, 511 E Third St., Bethlehem. The clinical portion runs from Sept. 28-Oct. 6 at a designated offsite location.

The nurse aide program prepares participants with the skills needed to take the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program Competency Examination for placement on the Pennsylvania Nurse Aide Registry. CNAs can work in long-term care facilities, hospitals or other health care settings. The program is also a way for students who need field experience to satisfy requirements towards their major.
