For almost 14 years, we have helped prospective students like you, to train for and successfully pass the state (CDPH) CNA exam. Our CNA training has a track record of helping all our students in ways that matter - in 4 short weeks, you too can earn your CNA diploma. Let us set you on your professional path to success!
For the CNA training, the all inclusive $2,000 tuition covers: 4 weeks' hands-on training; it includes uniforms, books, study guides, CPR/Basic Life Support (BLS) training approved by the American Heart Association (you will need this to work in a facility), LiveScan (fingerprints you will need to apply for your CNA license), and supplies.
Home Health Aide course is 40 hours, the license does not require a state exam, but you must first be an active CNA, to get your license for HHA. If you are an active CNA, and wish to get CEU credits (to renew your CNA license), successfully completing our Home Health Aide class will give you 26 CEU in-person credit hours. The HHA training is only $500.
Our CNA and HHA instructors bring to you significant nursing experience, and you will learn your craft from the best of the best. A high school diploma or GED are not required - you can start your training as long as you are 16 years old. You just need your ID, Social Security Number or ITIN number, TB (Tuberculosis test) and Physical Exam (from your doctor, or we can refer you to walk-in clinics) to get your CNA license.

Here’s What Our Students Say​ About Us
"Hellen CNA School is the best ever!! Miss Hellen cares for all her students and reinforces that we all understand and are prepared for the CNA State Exam. As a full-time college student and completing the CNA program, it kept me busy. However, Miss Hellen worked with me and made sure I was not behind. I graduated from this CNA program, and passed the CNA State Exam with no problems! I strongly recommend if you want to become a CNA go to Hellen CNA School, you will learn all of the material in 4 weeks and you will pass it! Thank you Mama Hellen for believing in my fellow CNA classmates and me! You are so inspirational!"

"This review is a combined review from 4 of Helen’s former students. Let us tell you what to expect. Miss Helen is an RN who knows her stuff. She has a ton of knowledge to share and gives you in-depth analysis of how to properly care for residents. She can be stern at times, but it’s obvious she truly cares about her students. The class is fast passes so keep up, and make sure you study. I also recommend taking some time off work if possible. Take advantage of the time she gives you in class to practice the skills. We highly recommend signing up for her school. And if she offers you a bowl of her tasty soup, eat it all and clean and put away your dish ;) It was a pleasure getting to know Helen and her students. We are taking our test in 12 hours, wish us luck.
Update: So I have spoken to most of the students that took the class with me, everyone of us has passed. That speaks for itself. Sign up for her school and you will pass"

"I came here just wanting to become CNA/HHA, not knowing Ms. Hellen would soon inspire me to go further in my nursing career. If you are looking to not only pass your board exam for CNA license, but to also get more knowledge in this area of nursing that I truly believe no other school will give you, than Trident School of Nursing is the place you want to make sure you attend to do that."

"Honestly, I'm very happy to find out school for CNA and HHA from Mrs. Hellen, I love her class she teaches me a lot from CNA, HHA and I learned so much from her class. I'm the first generation in the medical field of my family. Also, we have to go to clinical training on weekend two location. I will move forward higher education to nursing school to come to BSN."
