ADVANCED NURSING ASSISTANT 18 Credit Hours The Advanced Nursing Assistant program has been developed in conjunction with the Illinois Department of Public Health to expand on the skill level and professional op- portunities of the Certified Nursing Assistant. Additional skills in oxygenation, wound care and sterile technique are taught, along with an expansion of professional skills and behaviors such as communication and conflict resolution. An expanded clinical Practi- cum will also introduce the advanced nurse assistant to a wider variety of employment options available. Upon successful completion of the JWCC Advanced Nursing Assistant program, a certificate of completion is awarded and the student is eligible to take the State of Illi- nois ANATP certification exam. Once a student successfully completes the required writ- ten competency examination, employment opportunities for certified nursing assistants (CNAs) are excellent. A minimum grade of “C” must be achieved in all courses to successfully complete the program. REQUIRED COURSES
