al. Students need a BP cuff, a stethoscope, and a watch on the first day of class. All students in all locations must wear scrubs (any color) during the entire program, including clinicals.

Optional Equipment and Resources:
For your convenience, we offer the following supplies for the following rates, at the school:
- Blood pressure cuff & stethoscope: $40
- New Textbook: $40
- Gait Belt: $15. This is used to transfer patients, and you can practice with them in class.
Clinicals: A clinical rotation allows a student to ‘shadow’ a working CNA in a long-term care facility for ‘practicing’ what you have learned on a real patient. This is considered part of your training, and the state requires all CNAs to complete 24 hours of clinical rotation time.
Attendance: The Utah Nurse Assistant Registry (UNAR) requires CNA students to attend a minimum of 100 hours of a CNA program. Of those 100 hours, 49 hours are required to be completed online. Then 27 hours are required to be spent in skills labs, and 24 hours are required to be spent in a clinical rotation. The UNAR does not allow anyone to become a CNA unless exactly 100 hours are completed. If you do not complete the online, skills labs, or clinicals (even if you miss one minute), you will be required to make up that time, or you will not be able to sit for your exams and become a CNA. We enable you to sit in on other classes to make up missed time, but there is a limit to how much you can time you can make up, and a rescheduling fee will be involved.
State Exams
Students who complete this program are eligible to take the State of Utah exams (written and practical). These exams are not offered by the school, and the payment for the exams is made to the UNAR and not the school. The fees for these exams total $110.
