Northeast Texas Community College recently celebrated the achievements of 23 graduates from its Certified Nurse Aid (CNA) program. Over the course of the six-week certification, students gained essential hands-on experience and classroom instruction, equipping them with the skills to provide high-quality patient care in healthcare settings. Emily Mikel, the program's instructor, guided the students through rigorous training, ensuring they are well-prepared for the workforce.
Over half of these graduates are already planning to continue their education in the Patient Care Technician Program, further advancing their healthcare careers.
Emily Mikel, CNA Instructor, praised the graduates’ efforts: “These students have worked incredibly hard over the past six weeks, and I’m proud of their dedication. They are ready to make a real difference in patient care, and I’m excited to see many of them continue to grow in the Patient Care Technician Program.”
