Thanks to all of you we have become very aware of the need to incorporate a link for info about certifiation and recertification.
We are workign on this now and will be putting a link on the top of this page so folks can go right to it for info on certification and recertification.

Each state is different but each does have some agency that oversees the NATP. I have listed them below. Go to your states listing and call them. Ask for forms and directions.
If you are seeking reciprocity, you will need to contact your new states NATP for forms. You will be asked to send a photo ID, documentation of your job as a NA in the past two years (a pay stub is OK) and a copy of your SS card. If you have any problems getting reciprocity, call us and we will help you as much as possible to work with NATP. Our phone number at the National Network of Career Nursing Assistants is (330) 825 9342.
