trouble. Matter of factly I have turned my life completely around. That happened in georgia and I am back living in ny. What I would like to know is can I obtain a cna license with this on my record? thank you for your help.

I would surely like the anwser to this question because I had my certification as a CNA and a few years later. I ended up getting a felon on my record. I have been looking for a job it seems like forever. They have been hiring at the nursing home for like 6 months and I would really like to get in there.

no sorry you cant't get in any part of the medical field with a felony on your record

In certain states you can work in the medical field with a felony. I happen to have one and I work as a CNA. You have to apply for a waiver with the department of health. If they approve it you may work in the health field. I live in IL, so I contacted the IL Dept of Health. Best of Luck to you.

I am trying to get the real answer to this too. I am in jersey and am running into problems even finishing my schooling with my drug charges. I had contacted the board of nursing and was told I would just have to explain my situation. also I have heard of a rehabilitaion offenders act. don't know if you have gone to rehab that could help.. best of luck... I need it too.
