If your CNA license has expired, you need to renew it before you can continue with your work as a certified nursing assistant. However, for renewing the CNA license, you need to have working experience of two years as a certified nursing assistant.
Follow the requisite steps to renew your CNA license:
CNA
1. Request a Renewal Form from your Nurse Aide Registry. You need to fill all the personal information asked on the form. For the second section of the form, you need a healthcare employer to fill it in for you. The employer can be either your current employer or ex-employer you worked under in the last two years.
2. Sign the Renewal Form with the date of completion after the employers fill it in. Mail this form to the address associated with your state.
3. Finally, you need to be patient. The processing can take a couple of weeks, and you might be able to check the status of your application online.
4. If you have not worked as a certified nursing assistant in the last two years, you will have to take the CNA certification exam in the state again. Before appearing for the certification exam, certain states require you to register with a nurse aide program. You can also visit online resources to give mock tests and brush up your knowledge.
Depending on the state in which you are working, the requirements and procedures might vary. Always check with the respective Nurse Aide Registry regarding the details of the above procedures. In addition, if you are aware that you will not get a renewal, do not apply without fulfilling the state requirements.
After following these steps, your CNA renewal should be complete. You can now work as a nurse aide yet again. Keep renewing your license in time to ensure a smooth record with your employers.
