- Program Description The Nursing Assistant Program offered by ROYAL CAREER TECH (RCT) is a 150-hour program (50 hours of didactic courses, 40 hours of supervised clinical rotation at a long term care facility) that prepares individuals to assist patients or residents with healthcare needs with activities of daily living and provide bedside care including basic nursing procedures, all under the supervision of a Registered Nurse or Licensed Practical Nurse, and 60 hours of Job readiness and placement.
- Competencies The Nursing Assistant is an important member of the health care team who often holds a high level of experience and ability, but without qualification is unable to often perform some tasks due to issues of liability and legality. Nurse assistants are needed to provide routine care so that nurses can provide care that only they can perform, as outlined by the New Jersey Nurse Practice Acts. The expectations of nurse assistant extend beyond providing ADL to include observation of residents' condition and reporting the information back to the nurse. Federal nurse aide training regulations are mandated in the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987 (OBRA 1987). New Jersey approved training programs must be a minimum of 90 hours and include 40 hours of supervised clinical training. Among the requirements for becoming a state-certified nurse assistant is the mastery of a set of basic skills. These skills are needed to care for patients in both long-term-care facilities and in home settings. The Nursing assistant skills descriptions refer mostly to the care of elderly patients, but most of them would apply to any nursing assistant situation. The program offered by RCT prepares individuals to perform routine nursing-related services to patients in hospitals or residents in long-term care facilities, under the training and supervision of a registered nurse or licensed practical nurse.
