About
MedStar Academy’s Restorative Nurse Aide Training Program in Peoria, Arizona trains certified nursing assistants in rehabilitation skills for supervised and delegated restorative programs. Completion of both the theory and skills check-off results in an Evidence of Course Completion document, after which a CNA may use the RNA designation. The program combines approximately 30 hours of online, self-study, self-paced coursework with a skills check-off requiring about 1.5 hours per student. Admission requires a current CNA, LNA, or STNA credential, or work as a CNA within the previous three years, and proof of being a CNA is required before access is provided. The course includes sequential lesson plans, quizzes, and a final exam before the skills component.
