Kansas, KS | CNA Certification Training Programs

Depending on your goals and qualifications to meet the CNA requirements in Kansas, KS you may want to answer a few basic questions before you proceed on the right education path. 

  1. Please Choose Your Highest Level of Education

The health sector of Kansas’s economy is growing, and the demand for CNAs is growing along with it. Like many other states, there is a shortage of nursing staff in Kansas. This means opportunities for CNAs in Kansas are plentiful. Often, CNAs in the state, officially known as “Certified Nurse Aides”, will be employed in long-term care facilities such as nursing homes, as well as hospitals and clinics. Full time Certified Nursing Assistants in Kansas make around $20,000 to $25,000 per year (according to BLS.gov) plus benefits, a salary which is below the national average and variable based upon experience. However, the low cost of living in the state means that it is possible to live comfortably as a Certified Nurse Aide in Kansas. With growing health care needs, Kansas is a good place to start a career in the health sector as a Certified Nursing Assistant.
