Job Description

About the Program

Your healthcare career is waiting. Let’s get started! Valley Health welcomes individuals who want to begin a meaningful career in patient care to apply to our Nurse Aide Training Program (NATP). No previous nurse aide or medical experience is required. Accepted participants are paid Valley Health employees while completing the education, skills training, and clinical experience needed to prepare for the Certified Nurse’s Aide (CNA) examination.

Why Begin Your Career with Valley Health?

  • Valley Health is one of the region’s largest employers, and a nonprofit health care system rooted in caring for our communities.
  • The program has helped train and mentor area students for more than 20 years.
  • Participants are paid during training and build the knowledge and practical skills needed to become CNAs.

What You’ll Experience

  • Classroom education: Learn the fundamentals of safe, respectful, and effective nurse aide care.
  • Hands-on skills training: Practice essential patient-care skills in a supervised learning environment.
  • Clinical experience: Apply classroom learning while working with patients and members of the healthcare team.
  • Patient-care preparation: Develop skills related to activities of daily living, mobility, nutrition, vital signs, infection prevention, communication, and patient safety.
  • Basic Life Support training: Participate in American Heart Association Basic Life Support instruction.
  • Certification preparation: Complete course assessments, skills review, and preparation for the state nurse aide certification examination.
  • Career support: Receive guidance on applying and interviewing for available CNA opportunities after program completion.

What Does a CNA Do?

Following certification and placement, a CNA works under the supervision of a Registered Nurse or Licensed Practical Nurse to provide routine personal care, help maintain a safe environment, observe and report concerns, and support patients with their daily needs. Responsibilities may include:

  • Assisting with bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, feeding, and mobility.
  • Measuring and reporting vital signs.
  • Helping patients reposition, transfer, or walk safely.
  • Supporting patient comfort, dignity, and independence.
  • Communicating observations and concerns to the nurse.
  • Working collaboratively with nurses and other members of the care team.
  • Following infection-prevention, privacy, safety, and documentation requirements.

What We’re Looking For

  • A genuine interest in beginning and sustaining a career as a CNA with Valley Health.
  • Compassion and respect for patients from different backgrounds, circumstances, and stages of life including the ability to remain calm, respectful, and attentive when a patient is uncomfortable, frustrated, confused, or anxious.
  • Dependable attendance and the ability to meet the full program schedule.
  • Comfort providing hands-on personal care, including bathing, toileting, feeding, repositioning, and mobility assistance.
  • A high school diploma or equivalent.

Schedule and Location

  • Training lasts 8 weeks
  • Occurs Monday to Friday, mostly during the day
  • Located mostly in Front Royal with some additional training at other Valley Health locations
  • Usually have 5 cohorts a year, and space is limited

After You Finish the Program

After certification, participants agree to remain employed in an available Valley Health position requiring CNA licensure for 1,872 worked hours. Program completion does not guarantee transfer into a CNA role. Graduates are responsible for applying for and interviewing for available positions, and Valley Health recruiters may provide guidance during that process.

Participants who do not complete the program, do not obtain their certification, or do not transfer to a Valley Health CNA role within 90 days may be required to pay the cost of the program.

Pay and Benefits

  • Nurse Aide Student rate: $17.86 per hour.
  • Employment status during training: Temporary, per diem.
  • Post-certification compensation: Certified Nursing Aides start at $18.59. Total compensation is based on the CNA position, location, shift, experience, and applicable Valley Health compensation practices.
  • Benefits eligibility: Nurse Aide Students are not eligible for benefits. CNA positions may be eligible for benefits depending on the status.

Ready to Begin Your Journey?

Apply now to join Valley Health and take the first step toward a rewarding career in patient care. Bring your compassion, reliability, willingness to learn, and commitment to serving others. We’ll provide the training and support to help you build a strong foundation.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
