Nurse Aide and Phlebotomy Info Sessions

February 06, 2018

Information sessions for Wayne Community College’s nurse aide and phlebotomy programs will be held in March.

Anyone interested in enrolling in a Nurse Aide I, Nurse Aide II, or Phlebotomy Technician course in the Summer 2018 session must attend an information session about the registration process for that program. The sessions are free and do not require pre-registration.

The Nurse Aide sessions are scheduled for 12-1 p.m. on March 2, March 12, and March 19; and 5:30-6:30 p.m. on March 7, March 14, and March 21. They will be held in Room 101 of the Walnut Building on the college’s main campus in Goldsboro.

The sessions for Phlebotomy are set for 12-1 p.m. on March 26 and 5:30-6:30 p.m. on March 28, also in Room 101 of the Walnut Building.

Attendees must stay for the entire session in order to obtain registration paperwork. Registration will be held in April for both programs.

Courses are offered at a variety of times during the day and in both traditional and hybrid (partially online) instructional methods. The summer semester starts May 15 and runs to Aug. 15. Specific schedules for each course will be announced at the information session.

Nurse Aide I introduces basic nursing assistant skills required to provide personal care for patients, residents, or clients in a health care setting. It prepares students for the National Nurse Aide Assessment Program examination necessary for certification and listing on the North Carolina Nurse Aide I Registry.

Nurse Aide II equips students to perform more complex skills for patients or residents. Graduates are eligible to apply for listing as a Nursing Aide II by the N.C. Board of Nursing.

The Phlebotomy Technician course trains students to draw blood specimens from patients. It is designed to prepare them to take the American Society for Clinical Pathology’s National Phlebotomy Certification Examination.

Activity Director training, ServSafe training and testing, and Nurse Aide Refresher classes are also beginning soon.
