Requirements for Florida Nurse Aides

Requirements for CNA's vary from State to State. However, out of all of the States Florida seems to have the most relaxed requirements. For example, you are not required to have a High School Diploma or GED. You are also not required to have any clinical hours under your belt.
One of the requirement is that you pass a background check. If you do have a criminal record you still might be able to get away with obtaining certification regardless. Felonies, on the other hand, will most likely disable you from obtaining your certification. This will all be at the decision of the nursing board. Other than all that the only other requirments are passing your State exam. Good luck!
