Registered nursing assistants (NARs) are critical to the success of our care team. Nursing assistants can use this hands-on experience to prepare themselves for future jobs in healthcare. Many schools accept this work experience as course credit.

NARs care for patients and assist registered nurses in day-to-day activities, including:

• Residents' daily tasks
• Bathing, grooming and feeding residents
• Medical checkups and procedures
• Administrative duties

Our educational classes are temporarily on hiatus since we cannot host visitors on our campus. We will resume offering classes when the public health climate permits. Stay healthy!

• Free for newly-hired or long-term NRC employees
• Flexible, varying course lengths, lasting three weeks or six weeks
• Two components: classroom and clinical
• Taught by NRC's award-winning care team; curriculum approved by the Minnesota Department of Health
• Plenty of hands-on learning experiences
• Prepares you to take the state Nursing Assistant Registry exam

After passing the exam, you may begin work as a nursing assistant at NRC.
