Heart Saver Course in Glassboro, New Jersey

Home Health Aides assist individuals with physical or mental illnesses, injuries, disabilities, or infirmities in residential settings or their homes. They offer daily care, often under nurse supervision, and collaborate closely with families. This role is open to both men and women, supporting diverse caregiving needs.

Becoming a certified home health aide involves four simple steps:

1. Enroll in an NJ Board of Nursing-approved CHHA training program.
2. Complete your training and become eligible for the certification exam, which includes written and practical assessments.
3. Successfully pass the exams to obtain a certificate and Course Completion letter from your training institution.
4. Submit your application to the Board of Nursing, fulfilling all necessary requirements, including a fingerprint-based background check.

You can utilize your current valid CNA license to become certified as a CHHA through the CNA-CHHA Bridge Program. This program emphasizes personal care in home settings, cultural awareness, client safety, nutrition, housekeeping, home care concepts, and elderly client care

Required documents for the NJ Board of Nursing include a 2×2 passport photo (provided onsite), birth certificate or passport, citizenship proof (if applicable), and marriage/divorce documents (if there’s a name change), along with an $80 fee for fingerprint-based background checks. Copies are collected midway through the program. The submission deadline is the 1st clinical day.

We offer various payment options including cash, debit, money orders, certified checks, sponsorship payments, and now provide financing through Denefits. Your punctual monthly payments are reported to credit bureaus, aiding in the gradual enhancement of your credit score.

You have the choice to enroll in our online course or attend in-person classes at our Glassboro location. After completing the 60-hour training, you’re required to attend in-person clinical sessions at one of our New Jersey facilities.

Students have a 4-week timeframe to complete the online component of the 76-hour program, and 1 week for the conversion program. Exceeding this period incurs an additional $100 fee for another 4 weeks. Contact the instructor promptly to avoid account deactivation and charges.

For clinical sessions, a 48-hour notice is required for rescheduling. Failure to notify or attend incurs a $100 rescheduling fee. Weekly email reminders are sent to ensure completion by the due date.

The Care Training Academy provides employment support to graduates through its Employment Assistance Program, collaborating with various agencies across New Jersey. As a sister company of Care Right There, CTA facilitates job placements for eligible CHHA graduates. Our network of sponsors across different New Jersey cities seeks candidates from our student body to fill available positions.

If a student misses a class without prior notice, a $100 fee is required for rescheduling. Failure to complete the course within 60 days necessitates payment for the entire course again, per NJ Board of Nursing guidelines. One-time rescheduling is allowed for sickness or emergencies if communicated in advance, with a $100 fee for rescheduling within two weeks.

Students may reschedule only once after enrolling in the course. If a student decides to withdraw, the $100 portion of the total deposit is non-refundable under any circumstance.

In addition to the program fee, there is an extra $80 fee for fingerprinting and background checks by the BON.

Upon payment of the downpayment, students gain access to the The Care Training Academy student portal, receiving unique login credentials for course access. They enjoy unlimited access to learning materials and 24/7 technical support. Our user-friendly system allows seamless access to classes from desktops, laptops, tablets, or smartphones, anytime, anywhere.
