About the program

Nurse Aides (NA) are essential members of any health care team. Nurse Aides work under the supervision of a registered or licensed nurse in nursing homes, hospitals, adult day health centers, assisted living facilities, rehabilitation centers, doctor's offices, and private homes. Wherever there is a need for personal care, Nurse Aides work to meet the most basic needs of patients. Because Nurse Aides have extensive daily contact with patients, they are key to providing vital information to other healthcare team members.CFCC's Nurse Aide courses are offered at the Wilmington downtown campus, Alston W. Burke Center at Surf City, and at Burgaw Center at varying start times throughout the year.
