ABOUT THE PROGRAM
What Does a CNA Program Cover?
A Certified Nurse Assistant provides direct patient care under the supervision of licensed nurses. CNAs work in hospitals, nursing homes, assisted living facilities, rehabilitation centers, and home care settings.
The role demands technical skill and personal reliability. Patients depend on CNAs for their most fundamental daily needs, so training has to be thorough and practical.
At IP Training School, the program is structured to build those skills from the ground up. You will leave with the confidence and certification eligibility to step into a patient care role without hesitation.
The program covers:
- Fundamental healthcare principles, patient rights, and ethical responsibilities
- Anatomy and physiology as they relate to hands-on patient care
- Assisting patients with daily activities including bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility
- Vital signs measurement including blood pressure, pulse, temperature, and respiratory rate
- Infection control protocols and safe patient handling techniques
- Emergency response procedures and basic life support
- Documentation, communication, and teamwork within a clinical setting
- Preparation for the New York State CNA competency examination

LOCAL CONTEXT
Why Queens Residents Are Enrolling in CNA Classes in Queens, NY Right Now
Queens is one of the largest healthcare markets in New York City. The borough is home to major hospital systems, dozens of skilled nursing facilities, and hundreds of home care organizations that employ thousands of certified nursing assistants.
Key healthcare employers in Queens include:
- NYC Health + Hospitals/Queens, the first municipal hospital in the borough, serving central and southeastern Queens with over 499,000 clinic visits annually
- NYC Health + Hospitals/Elmhurst, a Level I Trauma Center serving one of the most densely populated areas in the country
- Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, a major safety-net provider in southeastern Queens
- NewYork-Presbyterian Queens in Flushing, offering comprehensive inpatient and outpatient services
- Flushing Hospital Medical Center, serving a large and growing immigrant patient population
- Skilled nursing facilities, home care agencies, and rehabilitation centers across Jackson Heights, Woodside, Astoria, Jamaica, and Richmond Hill
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, nursing assistant employment is projected to generate approximately 211,800 job openings per year through 2034. Most of those openings result from the need to replace workers who retire or move into other roles.
The median annual wage for nursing assistants reached $39,530 in May 2024. That makes it one of the most accessible entry points into stable, full-time healthcare employment without a four-year degree.
According to NYC Health + Hospitals/Queens, the hospital provides comprehensive services across cancer care, diabetes management, women’s health, and behavioral health. It serves as a cornerstone of public healthcare for communities across the borough.
Queens also has one of the fastest-growing senior populations in New York City. Neighborhoods like Flushing, Fresh Meadows, and Howard Beach have large concentrations of adults over 65 who require ongoing clinical support.
That demographic reality means Queens healthcare facilities are consistently looking for trained, certified candidates ready to work.
