MONTOUR FALLS – Schuyler Hospital now offers a training program for hospital aides.

The program is held twice a week, runs for 6.5 weeks and consists of both classroom and hands on education. The program is for non-certified nursing aides.

If you or someone you know is interested in signing up for the next training session, contact Schuyler Hospital at (607) 535-7121 or email [email protected]

Nursing aides, sometimes called nursing assistants, help provide basic care for patients in the hospital, under the direction of nursing staff. Becoming a nursing aide is ideal for those wishing to enter into the medical field and learn on-the-job about the field of nursing.

 

Employment of nursing assistants and orderlies is projected to grow 17 percent from 2014 to 2024, much faster than the average for all occupations. Because of the growing elderly population, many nursing assistants and orderlies will be needed to assist and care for these patients.

“I have been a Hemo dialysis patient for almost Five years. Prior to dialysis and during dialysis I have had several trips to the ER, due to other health issues & was admitted to CMC more than a few times. Each and every time I’ve been there, whether in patient or out, I have been treated with respect, professionalism, and efficiency. I give this hospital 2 thumbs up!! Thank you CMC for taking care of me all these years!!”

“I have to say the last couple visits that I’ve had here have been wonderful. About a month ago I had an EGD and the staff were amazing! Explained everything in detail and made me feel at ease. I was very nervous and the nurse I had was very comforting. Tonight we had to take my son to the emergency room and they were awesome with him! We got right in. “
