ATTENTION ALL NURSE AIDE CANDIDATES AND NURSE AIDES IN MICHIGAN

The Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs, Bureau of Health Care Services, Long Term Care Division has made the following changes to the Michigan Nurse Aide Competency Evaluation Program effective September 2013:

1. Nurse Aides no longer have a 60-day Grace Period during their renewal process to submit their renewal application. Any nurse aide who submits their renewal application to Prometric after their certificate has already expired/lapsed will have to retrain and retest in order to become recertified.
2. The exemption process is no longer available to lapsed nurse aides or RN/LPN students. You will need to train and test to become recertified/certified.  No exceptions.
3. Exemption from training is only applicable to licensed nurse aides from other states or those individuals that have completed an approved training program in another state and did not obtain certification in that state.  All candidates residing in the State of MI who wish to become a nurse aide will need to train and test at an approved program to become certified.  To obtain a list of approved programs, please go to www.michigan.gov/healthlicense.
4. Candidates who have completed an approved training program (MI or another state) now have 24 months from their training completion date to take their exam.  Out-of-State training program individuals must apply and be approved for exemption with the State of Michigan.
5. Candidates who hold an active license in another state and have been approved for exemption now have 24 months from their exemption approval date to take their exam.
