ANNOUNCEMENT:
Regretfully, the NHHCA School of Nursing will extend the
temporary suspension of all classes. This decision has been
made voluntarily by the NHHCA Board of Directors after
thorough deliberation and careful study of the nursing job
market in New Hampshire. Given the current abundance of
qualified LNA's and MNA's competing for a limited number of
jobs, the Board feels that it would be irresponsible to
train additional personnel at this time without having
sustainable positions for them. It is crucial to a student's
successful career path that they have every opportunity to
practice their skills as soon after graduation as possible.
The NHHCA School of Nursing
will resume operation as soon as the job market rebounds and
there is sufficient need for the programs we offer. We are
also exploring the potential for initiating an Activities
Professional Certificate Program and a Licensed Practical
Nurse Program. No specific timetable has been set for
resuming classes. We look forward serving our students again
as soon as possible. |
New Hampshire Health Care
Association (NHHCA) opened the NHHCA Nurse Training School in the
spring of 2007. Our mission is to offer our members customized LNA and MNA training programs that meet their employee
recruitment, retention and career advancement goals. By foregoing
a dedicated central campus, we have the flexibility to hold
classes in the regions where students live and work. This often
means holding classes in the long-term care facilities where
students will begin the next step on their career paths. Holding
classes in locations local to students, limits travel time making
more time available for study, family and other important
responsibilities.

Both programs are $1,000 per student
for NHHCA members. An NHHCA member is anyone who works for a NHHCA
member facility. Please call for non-member tuition information.
Some facilities sponsor students and have them sign an agreement
to work for 1 year. Other facilities pay for the program up front,
and then make payroll deductions until half of the tuition is paid
by the student.
