Program Description:
The Nurse Aide Registry maintains registrations for unlicensed health care personnel including Nurse Aide I, Medication Aide, Geriatric Aide, Home Care Aide and Health Care Personnel. To work as a Nurse Aide I in North Carolina nursing home, individuals must pass a Competency Evaluation and be listed in the Nurse Aide I Registry. This can be done with or without an accompanying training course. Medication Aides and Geriatric Aides must also pass specialized training courses at an approved site. The following information is from the NCNAR website: Pearson Vue is the state-approved vendor for North Carolina Nurse Aide I Competency Evaluations. The Nurse Aide Competency Evaluation Service (NACES) works with Pearson Vue to schedule and administer the examinations. Approved training programs may assist their students with exam scheduling. Individuals who wish to schedule an exam may obtain a candidate handbook, application and test schedules at www.pearsonvue.com or by calling NACES at 1-888-282-6904. Nurse aides listed in another state must pass either a North Carolina state-approved Nurse Aide I Training and Competency Evaluation Program or the state-approved Nurse Aide I Competency Evaluation Program to become listed on the North Carolina Nurse Aide I Registry. North Carolina does not accept reciprocity from other states.
