SUCCESS

The Beginning
In 1998, CARE Training Center LLC began as a small Private Occupational Training School. The school was formed in response to the growing need for qualified entry level nursing assistants. Connecticut, as well as the entire country, was seeing a rapid increase in the demand for more and more health care workers.
As a response to the growing needs for CNA’s and other healthcare fields, Care Training offers low tuition, flexible schedules and instructors who are experts in their fields of studies.
The Present
The first CNA-Nursing Assistant class at CARE Training Center in 1998 graduated only 3 students. However, these three students went on to pass their State Examination. In 2003, the State Exam pass rate for our Nursing Assistants has been over 98%. Since then over two thousand students have enrolled in the school and have gone on to pursue successful health careers.
CARE Training Center LLC is still managed professionally and enrolls more than 400 students per year. Many students, with the help of their nurse and other professional instructors, have gone on to further their health education, enrolling in nursing schools, colleges and even medical school. Our job placement rate for graduates is exceptional! Employers come to our school to recruit our graduates for immediate job opportunities. Our students come from all over the State to build the knowledge and skills required to perform with confidence. Most students who enroll now are recommended by former students. The changes in health care and the level of training that many employers now require have caused CARE Training Center LLC to provide an even more diverse range of health career training programs. Our courses now include those health options most requested by both the public and the health care industry due to the consolidation of front line patient care personnel. The health professional who works with patients now must be multi-skilled and be available to complete various tasks formerly associated with medical technicians, nurses and others.

The Future
At the completion of most of our courses, students are able to acquire State and/or National Certification. Students who successfully complete the Nurse’s Aide course are eligible to register with the Connecticut’s State Registry after successfully passing a written exam and skills evaluation administered by the American Red Cross.
**National Certification can be achieved after successful completion of a program (classroom and clinical) and registering (exam cost varies) with National Health career Association (NHA) through Care Training Center. Registration is accepted at least 3 weeks prior to exam date. The student then receives a study guide and takes the national certifying exam on the student’s chosen date. Successful passing of the exam (passing percentage determined by NHA) entitles the student to receive a certification card. Exam dates are offered monthly and postings are located throughout classrooms.
Workshops and private tutoring are available to help those students who require additional help or a refresher for a specific subject prior to examination. The nurses, technicians and other professionals who work at CARE Training Center welcome the opportunity to prepare YOU for your new career in the ever changing and ever challenging field of health care. We are all committed to offering affordable yet comprehensive training to those students who have the desire to become health care employees.
Your enrollment is YOUR commitment to your future success. With the addition of programs in the allied health field such as Medical Assistant and Medical Billing and Coding, CARE once again sets the pace for the future of health care training.
