MSTC - Nursing Assistant

Nursing Assistants, sometimes called nurse aides or attendants, are in high demand to assist in the care of patients in hospitals, extended care facilities and home care situations. Working under the direct supervision of a licensed nurse, their responsibilities may vary, but personal care and emotional support of patients are always primary considerations.

This 120-hour program involves online lecture, campus lab experiences and 48 hours of clinical practicum, which involves working in healthcare agencies with patients and residents. Students must be at least 16 years old to attend clinical practicum. The Mid-State Technical College Nursing Assistant program is accredited by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) Bureau of Quality Assurance.

The Nursing Assistant program is offered at the Marshfield, Stevens Point and Wisconsin Rapids campuses.
