64B9-15.011 In-service Training Requirements for Certified Nursing Assistants.
(1) Each certified nursing assistant must complete a minimum of 12 hours of in-service training each calendar year. For candidates certified during the calendar year, the minimum in-service hours required shall be prorated at the rate of 1.0 hours per month from the month of initial certification to the end of the calendar year.
(2) Every 2 years, in-service training hours shall include, but are not limited to, the following areas:
(a) HIV/AIDS, Infection Control;
(b) Domestic Violence;
(c) Medical Record Documentation and Legal Aspects Appropriate to Nursing Assistants;
(d) Resident Rights;
(e) Communication with cognitively impaired clients;
(f) CPR skills; and
(g) Medical Error Prevention and Safety.
(3) After meeting the requirement in subsection (2), health care career/technical courses in a college, university, or approved nursing program may be used to meet the hours requirement in subsection (1).
(4) A certified nursing assistant is exempt from the inservice education requirement in subsection (1) if the certified nursing assistant was on active duty with the Armed Forces for 6 months or more during the calendar year, and was in good standing with the board at the time active duty began. However, this exemption will not arise on the basis of the performance of short periods of active duty (such as summer or weekend drills) by a member of the Armed Forces Reserves. Duty in the United States Public Health Service is not considered duty in the Armed Forces.
(5) A certified nursing assistant who is the spouse of a member of the Armed Forces and was caused to be absent from Florida due to the spouse’s duties with the Armed Forces shall be exempt from inservice hours requirements. The certified nursing assistant must show satisfactory proof of the absence and the spouse’s military status.
(6) Each certified nursing assistant must retain in-service compliance records for a period of 4 years and submit records to the board if required for auditing.
