Description:

The purpose of this Golden LEAF grant is to help Pitt Community College increase the number of nursing assistants at the CNA I and II levels in Pitt County and provide immediate employment to graduates. An initial assessment will determine whether the student has the qualifications to participate in the CNA, and subsequent certification training (Medication Aide, Healthcare Technician, Phlebotomist, 12-Lead EKG testing and monitoring) or to receive remediation and training as a Home Healthcare Companion Aide. This program expects to increase total annual certification across all groups by about 80%.
