These vary from state to state.  Use this web site to check for the long term care agencies in your area.\nhttp://www.eldercare.gov/Eldercare/Public/Home.asp\n\nIn Ohio, without a medical reason, it is an inability to perform two activities of daily living, including basic personal activities such as bathing, eating, dressing, mobility, transferring from bed to chair, and using the toilet.  A long term care ombudsman from the Ohio Department of Aging would visit and determine the individuals capabilities.\nOr, if a physician has ordered nursing care as a result of a specific need for medical treatment, such as IV hydration.

Most technical schools or Community Colleges have CNA programs. The best place to check is with a local nursing home. Nursing homes always have a large supply of CNA's. When you talk to the nurse supervisor, be friendly, you might end up doing some networking that will help you get a job there when you complete your training. Some nursing homes offer free tuition. You start at an entry level position and stay for 2 months and after that, if you want to get your CNA certificate, they'll pay for it and they'll work around your school schedule. Call a variety of nursing homes and assisted living communities. I hope this helps.

I am an "older" nursing student. Start with the federal financial aid program. Many other programs are based on their criteria. Also check out Johnson & Johnson's nursing site. It is one of the best. Three good links are below. I hope this helps.

Contact the Department of Education in Lansing. They will be glad to send you the requirements, which, as you know, vary from state to state. Good luck.

I know that several community colleges have those classes, including Wayne County CC and Washtenaw Community College.\n\nYou need to talk with a local nursing home and see what arragements that they have to train their people, and use the ideas that they give you.   Heck, you might end up making come contacts in that home which would give you a job later!\n\nIn addition, did you know that you get a full ride if you agree to work in a nursing facility that has mostly mediciad / medicare patients?

You would probably have to be at least 18, but thats not the only criteria.  You have to show a stable environment too, via income, housing, stability...etc.\n\nIf you don't meet this and to help, try a big brother, big sister program where you schedule visits with a child.

You have to be at least 18 to apply for housing. But you may want to see if you can go ahead and get on a list, because it usually takes awhile.

I don't live in your area, but often times, you can get a job at a nursing home and they will give you free training.  Also, at least in Ohio, if you pay for your training, and you work for a LTCF for at least a year afterwards, they must, by law, reimburse you for your training (if you request that they pay you).
