Wayne Community College Continuing Education has rescheduled information sessions for its nurse aide programs that could not be held due to Hurricane Matthew’s aftermath.
Anyone interested in enrolling in a Nurse Aide I, Nurse Aide II, or Phlebotomy Technician course in the spring 2017 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 will be held 12-1 p.m. and 5:30-6:30 p.m. on Oct. 25 and 31 in Room 161 of the Wayne Learning Center (main building) on the college’s main campus in Goldsboro.
Sessions for Phlebotomy are still set for 12-1 p.m. on Oct. 24 and 5:30-6:30 p.m. on Oct. 26 in Room 101 of the Walnut Building.
Attendees must stay for the entire session in order to obtain registration paperwork and be allowed to sign up for a course during the registration period in November.
Courses are offered at a variety of times during the day and in both traditional and hybrid (partially online) instructional methods. The spring semester starts in early January and runs to mid-May. Specific schedules for each course will be announced at registration.

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.
