STNA training Cleveland, Ohio

Hello. I live near Cleveland, Ohio. Due to lack of funds, I don't own a car and use public transportation. I'm very interested in being a nursing assistant, but don't know where there are any training classes around here. There are some nursing homes which have free training classes, but say that they're only for people that want to work in home health care/nursing homes (I'd like to possibly work in hospitals as well, so I'll need a different location) plus, being a single mother, working where I currently do, I don't have money to pay the $800 fee that some places are asking for. So, I'm asking a few questions.....1) Are there any places around, that are free/discounted? 2)Can you get any grants/scholarships for training classes? or just actual university/college classes? I'd appriciate any help that anyone can give me on this topic. Thank you very much.

I attended the Absolute Nurse Aid Training school in Canton, OH and I would have to say that this place is no good. The trainer is not smart and should not be teaching anyone, let alone nurse aids. Also, their website says they offer state testing in all locations, and they don't. You cannot take the state test in the Canton location.

i really need this class

Kay, thanks for the info. It was very helpful, but is there any free classes in columbus ?

I want to become STNA certified, but i don't have the financial means to pay the $500+ cost for the classes. I did see on here that some places offer free/financial aid to single mothers with low income. The problem I am having is that the times the classes are held I am not available(I work Mon-Fri from 3:30-7:30pm & the classes either end @4 or start @5,etc ). Does anyone know where I could go to take the classes around my availability?

Thanks.

Pleasant Lake Villa in Parma on Ridge Rd offers free classes from 8am-3pm or somewhere in those hours. Then they give you a job after you pass the classes.

could you give me the num,ber to some of the nursing homes that provide frre classes

HEY CLEVELAND CLINIC OFFERS A NURSING ASSISTANT PROGRAM. you don't get an stna licence but they offer you a job, only draw back is that you have to work there a year then you are free to go and that it is only good there.

I just took my STNA exam yesterday and I know that i failed the I/O part, because our instructor told us to measure the fluids and during my skill i went to go measure the fluid and the evaluator told me i can't use it i have to eyeball it and i was way off because i wasn't trained to eyeball it. I am still waiting on my results. But in the meantime does anyone know how soon i can retake the the exam over after i failed?

I thought I saw a comment a while back where there is an STNA program that only takes 1 week and then you have 2 days of clinicals. Does anyone in the Columbus area know of any place like that?

Abed Osman, Recruiter in Columbus, Ohio said: Dear Shock,
First of all, don't assume you failed it; although the official D&S Diversified Skill Test Instructions start off by reminding the test taker that "I do not judge or evaluate your performance. I will be observing and recording whether or not you perform the steps on each of the five tasks that make up your Skill Test," keep in mind that there nonetheless exists some degree of subjectivity with respect to exactly what your evaluator observs and records--maybe your evaluator was having a "good day."
Secondly, to my knowledge you can register right away to retake the skills test--just wait to get the official results...I have a feeling you did OK.
Let me know, would you?
Abed Osman
Recruiter
btw,
I wonder why they call themselves "evaluators" when they tell you right off the bat that they don't evaluate your performance.
whatever

Yes i failed the skills part. I asked my PC about the results in told her what i did since our PI is new at teaching and I was her first class things wasn't covered correctly. Some people say i should contest it, i even told the evaluator that I wasn't trained to eyeball only to measure the fluids - i guess she wasn't having a good day with me. Oh well, next time i pass

I will be done with my stna class on 7/17/09.. I was wondering if anyone had any good job leads.. I have sent out my resume to a bunch of places in the last two days.. Any help would be a great help.

Thanks to all

i need more information

Denise Griffin in Cleveland, Ohio said: i need more information

Menorah Park is the only place that I know of on the east side of Cleveland that offers free STNA training. The next class starts October 5th. It's 3 weeks long and they give you a job and pay for your test if you pass. You need 2 letters of reference, a high school diploma or GED, pass a criminal and background check and do an interview. It's at 27100 Cedar Road in Beachwood. Their number is (2 1 6) 8 3 1-6 5 0 0. (no spaces lol)

If anyone is still looking, I know that Max Hayes offers a 5 week STNA program through their Adult and Continuing Education program. You need to have a high school diploma or GED and pass an entrance exam. The next class starts in October. It's not free, but you can get it paid for through the Workforce Investment Act (I believe that's what it's called). And you don't even have to go downtown to the Employment Connection and sit through the orientation, they process all your info up at Max Hayes. They also pay for you to take the state test, which would be held at Max Hayes.

DO YOU HAVE # OR MORE INFO ON MED CARE

They definitely charge 455$ not free

contact me by email: lana@inbox.com to get things started

all of these agencies seem to be well overpriced, you wont make $525 in a week so they really should not charge that amount for training, trinity is too high and absolute is too high and they seem to be spamming the board as if them repeatedly reposting the same info will force people to go with them

I AM WELLINGTON DOLOSON, A YOUNG MAN OF 23 YEARES AND HAVE CMMPLETED MY HIGH SCHOOL EDUCATION AT THE ST. MARY'S CATHOLIC SCHOOL IN LIBERIA. DURING MY HIGH SCHOOL DAYS, MY AMBITION IS TO BECOME A STNA BUT DUE TO FINACIAL PROBLEM I AM UNBLE TO DO MY DREAM COUSE. I WILL BE VERY HAPPY WHEN I SEE ANY ONE THAT WILL HELP ME TO GO SCHOOL.

I had 12 years experience as as STNA and I let my certification run out because I had a back injury. Good luck with Menorah park. They gave me the run around, had me come late to fill out an application only for the jobs they have listed on their board. Then when I asked to speak with someone directly, I was told she was unavailable.oh and by the way our training class is full this month. Try again next month. They will pay for the training-after you take the class- but only for the ones they choose to hire. So, if they do not choose to hire you, then it's $475.00 payable immediatly. Good Luck.

Yes, they charge $455

Yesw, they charge $455.00

i SUGGEST YOU TAKE THE WRITTEN EXAM OVER, YOU CAN GET FREE PRACTICE TESTS ONLINE, AND THE COST FOR THE RETEST IS MINIMAL.

Does anyone know of any classes in the wadsworth/seville/rittman/wooster area? Thanks

RebeccaGreen in Cleveland, Ohio said: 1. Is the price of the test included in the fee?
2. Do you offer the test on site?
3. Do students also have to buy scrubs or wear scrubs to class?

The site didn't give too much info.

I attended medcert and passed easily. The State fee is not included, you can wear what ever you wont to class. On your clinical days you will have to wear a Med-Cert T-Shirt for $10 to indentify to everyone that you are a student. In white scrubs wit white shoes... Give them a call they are a family own business with an excllent PC/PI she is a very wonderfully lady with lots of knowledge and here teaching skills is second to none.... You will get you money worth then some.... she also teaches as Tri-C too... so your getting a teaching with years of knowledge to help you in your career. If i can help just e-mail me.
