20 Best Cna Programs In Little Rock, AR (2022 Updated)

Went for heart echo. Short line for covid-19 pre check. Forced social distancing in waiting room. Reasonable wait time for check-in and actual test. And you must wear a mask all over building. Which is ok with me because of my regular illnesses.Jacqueline Biddle

UAMS Cancer treatment staff are all wonderful, highly professional and so so caring. I can't imagine going through this anywhere else!Rory Bowers

I have worked with such an Awesome and Phenomenal Team of Professors, Doctors, Nurses and Techs, and anyone that wears a UAMS badge 😀vivian hervey

I lost my father unexpectedly last November, and my mom had been diagnosed with early Parkinsons at that time. My husband also had a TIA. After making it through that time, my mother was doing well and took a trip out of state to visit her brother. The 2nd day she fell and broke her hip and had to have hip replacement surgery. She stayed there for therapy until she was okayed to travel. I did not know what kind of care she'd need or for how long, and being an only child and already drained from the past several months, I knew I'd need help. I heard from word of mouth that Synergy was great. And I am SO glad I chose them! Nina met with me asap to set up a plan, and there was a caregiver ready the day my mom came home. She had care around the clock for a full week/week and a half. Then when we realized she did not need as much care, they worked with us on reducing hours to a few twice a day. The caregivers were amazing! Some even became friends with my mom. They were not just caregivers (helping her with light chores, making meals, assisting her with physical tasks) but companions, especially when she really needed it. My mom is resilient, so I'm not surprised she progressed, but I believe part of that was due to Synergys help during that time. I know I appreciated it greatly. If we ever need help again, I will 100% turn to them! Highly recommend this company of caring people.Gretchen Nunez

UPDATE… Synergy Home Care was a life saver for me when my 94 year old Dad came home from rehab for a fall.  The rehab center called me at 8:00am that Dad was being discharged at 2:00pm. We had planed for discharge on the next day, but they moved it up.  With one call to Nina they were able to get everything set up and even had the care giver come over to meet Dad.  "Charles" was wonderful he was on for 8:00am-8pm shifts for many days even over the weekend until we could get Dad into assisted living. Angelo thank you and your team for all your help—AGAIN 01/2021–Synergy took care of my mother for her last few weeks. She was in hospice, but we wanted her to be at home. My 93 year old dad cold not take care of her so the team of caregivers at Synergy provided 24/7 care. We could not have done it without them. All the caregivers were great I would highly recommend their services.Rich Robins

My husband had a knee replacement surgery, we had set up a family member to come help as I’m disabled and it would be difficult for me to handle it all. The day after surgery they called to let us know that they had COVID, My daughter in love found Nina and Senergy, Nina came to the house and went over everything we needed. Nina is great she and Karen worked together and found the blessing to our home, Christiana came in and took care of the house, my husband, the dogs loved her and then there was me. She understood what we needed and got it all done in a day. She helped me get him to therapy and knew days I wasn’t able to do things due to pain and made sure I ate some and made the best omelette and world famous pancakes. I love this company and the staff they care about you and your needs to be sure to put the right person with youDeborah Kemp

Awesome experience! All recruiters there are incredibly friendly and SSG Lewis is great! I’m leaving in a week for basic, and through my whole process there was communication and no bs. Whatever questions I had, he had an answer for whether it was the ugly truth or not, he never tried to dress anything up. I am incredibly thankful for the honesty and the advice given to me. Highly recommend!Bradie Ryburn

Had a great experience here. Everyone did what they could to help me out through the process. SSG Lewis was straight up with me with everything. Overall it was a better experience talking to all the recruiters here compared to the ones I met in the past. Would recommend to anyone who is considering the army.Misael Delacruz

I have nothing but thanks to give to these Army Recruiters at this location. Thank you SSG Lewis for helping me begin my Army journey. To anybody coming to this facility seeking a promising future in the military, trust these recruiters. They will stop at nothing to help you take that step.Ronnie Anderson

"This is my first travel assignment, so I interviewed several recruiters, and I am delighted with my choice! Colleen takes a personal approach, sharing her experiences and expertise gained from her other clients as applicable to my situation. I felt extremely comfortable asking her all of my questions, no matter how basic. I feel that Colleen listens & learn from the experiences of her clientele, but she also 'lives the life' of a traveler with her husband, so her insight is invaluable. I appreciate her genuine and open approach, open communication, and responsiveness! She provides an open invitation to join the TNAA team, thus avoiding the 'high pressure" I felt from other recruiters. I want a recruiter whom I feel is my "go-to" person, and she represents quite well. Strong work, Friend! "Deborah Kelstrom

My recruiter Tiffany was a treat to work with! She did an awesome job helping me find an assignment, and very quickly also! I suddenly and unexpectedly had the previous assignment I was on cancelled due to hurricane Ian. She was so empathetic to my situation, from having gone through the hurricane, to me having been displaced from the place I was staying for my assignment, the assignment being cancelled without any notice. She listened to me and what I was seeking for my next assignment. She kept in contact with me, kept me updated every step of the way. Which I so appreciated!! I signed a contract for my 1st assignment with Tiffany and TNAA exactly 1 week from my first conversation with Tiffany. And the assignment is everything I was looking for. Tiffany did an AMAZING job!!! Thank you 🙂Jeri Ann

This has been a great experience from app to hire. Laura Morgan: "Always available! Even surprised me with a weekend update and some late evening contacts. Always kept me in the loop throughout the application process and ensured the contact was appropriate for my time. If she didnt know the answer to my questions she wasn't afraid to hunt it down and get back to me quickly. I will always trust someone who is humble and seeks out knowledge. I can't wait to see how this first contract goes and continue teaming up with Laura! " Thanks again! LauraLeah Greer

The teachers to me are awesome and willing to work with you if you have questions don't be afraid to ask because they will get you an answer. Ms. Lamb is one of the best. So let me rant. The school has issues a few which they addressed immediately so that was a plus. But omg supplies we never have any how are we supposed to be successful in phlebotomy and don't have anything to practice with. They want you to have so many sticks but no equipment to do so. If they get the structure of the school together and also get the right amount of supplies to accommodate students it will be a little better. Also they need to have a week where you can have volunteers come to get blood drawn because the other students don't want to participate. ( They will eventually need people to volunteer for them as well.)Ronnesha Jones

I would have to say this is one of the most unprofessional unorganized schools ever! Teachers came and went when I was there. Only a handful truly care! Jade has been a God send in all of this mess, but I would recommend if you can go to another program please do it! Graduation was supposed to be in August and then postponed until October and now October is here and can take a photo or anything in caps and gowns, proper preparation would have avoid this, but the school is just like well your working and have a diploma so oh well! That’s really trashy for me!Ciarra Hopkins

I Had an awesome experience at eastern I completed both programs dental assistant and medical assistant… But I didn't know that's eastern wasn't CODA accredited.. BC my mother passed away and I was unable to reinstate my dental assistant license bc I was out of town for a month I wasn't thinking straight at that time…. I feel like that was money and time wasted on the dental program..but now I'm working in a Laboratory which I love…Chantell Hughes

I would absolutely give this course zero stars if I could, all because of the instructor. If you need to stick to the three week timeline, this course isn’t for you. She will cancel class frequently. Once because she forgot the keys to let us into the classroom, twice with a message telling us before hand (one of those being only thirty minutes before the class so the majority of the class was already on their way and some didn’t receive a message at all), and once she simply did not show up without informing anyone. We had to call student services who had to call her to see if she was even going to show up. And when she does actually show up to class she is late, she discusses her religion, and she discusses personal stories that do not pertain to the course work like her desire to start her own phlebotomy school and etc. She even gave us all her work phone number and work email to contact her at and most students in my class claim that they have tried to reach her with questions and/or concerns and have gotten no response. One of the many things discussed in this course is professionalism yet the instructor is completely unprofessional. We all paid to be in this class and our time is just as valuable as hers, but she clearly doesn’t respect our time. The course seems like it could actually be really good if only we had an instructor who was dedicated and professional unlike Erica Malcomb.D P

The worst place I booked the course and every time the instructor is never show up without any excuse, and I rescheduled it but with the same problem. I decided to cancel the course and they never refund my money until now. Never go there!!!N E

Location is very accessible and the coursework is taught well. Instructors are nice. I finished the program feeling confident in the skills I learned. There’s a Trader Joe’s around the corner so I could get healthy snacks before class.Gigi Brown

Let me start by saying that if you are thinking about getting certified in any of the multiple programs this school has to offer, don't think about it twice and do it! The staff is amazing people who are always there to help you as much as possible with any concerns you might have, I have thought about getting certified for a long time but I never did due to some not pleasant experiences with other organizations in the past but as soon as I stepped into ACHC they made me feel like home, The instructors do an amazing job! I had Kristy as my instructor and I must say that I'm beyond grateful for all the insight and help she provided me during my time at ACHC, having this MLT certification has been a great achievement in my career, and with no doubt, I'm coming back to this school for more! All I can say is Thank you! Thank y'all for everything!Alex

I’m so glad I found ACHC . I was so reluctant because of my age but when I tell you it was the absolute best decision I have made . Since taking my Patient Care Tech course I have gained so much experience and I’ve even got the job I’ve always wanted. Thank you ACHC for helping me become a better me !!!!! ACHC has become like family now . If you’re looking for a great school give ACHC a call . The instructors are very knowledgeable , friendly , helpful and encouraging. 😀Dionne Ervin

The staff is highly knowledgeable of the material and do a great job at preparing students for exams. I felt extremely comfortable working with everyone there and they made sure everyone felt safe and acknowledged throughout the entire process. I would HIGHLY recommend this school to anyone, and if I ever needed a class that they happen to offer I would be more than happy to return for further education. All around an amazing experience!!!Camilia Nauden

First let me say that the caregiver sent to me was PROFESSIONAL, VERY WARM, and THOROUGH. I enjoyed her services and would have left a 5 ⭐️ rating and referred CareLink to others, but now I ABSOLUTELY will not. My caregiver was a new hire, and I was her first client. From the beginning, she had problems with collecting her pay on time and in the format in which she had set up, she explained. She also shared with me that the person she was communicating with was very disrespectful in handling this matter, and to add more insult to injury this individual laughed at her while they were on the phone, She eventually had to quit working for this company due to CareLink's continued errors with her pay. CARELINK immediately let me know that the caregiver was no longer with them and that they would find another. I quickly contacted my caregiver and asked her if I could be her client at the other agency she was already working at before CareLink, and to my pleasant surprise she said “yes”. I called CareLink as soon as I was done talking with the new agency and discharged myself from receiving any more services from them. If they would do this to any of their employees it could cause the client to be affected. Do I want to do business with a company that doesn't respect and value its employees? NO, I don't. I've happily moved on😄CNique Henson

Thank youDear Jackie of Carelink, Color a smile , the Enjoy Today color a smile page colored by a child of the name Sharon age 12 was included with my Meals on Wheels I received to day.

Carelink of north little rock, provide our meals on wheels. I thank you all for a true smile on my face and bringing a warming to my heart. Thank you Jackie for your sweet smile. Thank you Barbara Skiles age 74 IN arkansas.Bsum1 Arkansan

The people that work the offices will tell you one thing when you know for a fact that they are not being truthful with you then are completely rude to you when they find out you have checked up on them to find the truth. They called my wife that she or myself are not to contact my aide again (she is a longtime family friend) which she was the reason we went to them to start with. Beware NON TRUTHFUL ALERT…STAY AWAY.John Glidewell

My grandmother has been here for almost 2 years. The people here don't care, they leave the elderly alone for hours with zero supervision or help. They don't keep up with showers/baths. They allow them to soil themselves and don't take care of it for who knows how long. I'm hoping it's just hours, but it seems like it could be much longer. They allow aggressive elderly into others rooms to start fights, some of have been injured due to this. All the bad reviews are exactly right. The 5 star reviews all seem like they are written by the staff. Edit: the auto reply is not appreciated, we have called and complained dozens of times, it does not help… in fact over the last 4-5 months with multiple families complaining about the treatment of our loved ones have only gotten worse. Update: The cottages have had multiple state agency audits. I have not heard much about the investigation by the state, but there is now a class action lawsuit being started by the Ludwig law firm in little rock.Tk0Rahl

This place is ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! Stay away!!! They told me what I wanted to hear and then did NOTHING!! They even told me they couldn’t accommodate a diabetic diet that I’d have to bring in what I wanted her to have 3 times a day. They don’t clean rooms but 1 time a week. They don’t check vitals. They have employees that put on a set of gloves and go from room to room with them on. Blood was dropped in the floor and they took no action to make it sterile afterwards. They don’t do anything but bill your insurance company. We stayed 4 days total and only that long because we had to deal with insurance company to move. RUN!! DO NOT put your loved ones here. They only get 1 star because it doesn’t let me do ZERO STARS! You’ve been warned.Beth Ashby

Having a private room in a 12 room cottage is a great concept if you have the staff / admin that is concerned about your loved one's needs and be properly trained to handle that elder's needs and specific care. There is no excuse to leave an elder in a wet diaper all day and not give the meds as they are prescribed- in some instances not receiving their meds all day. There is no way 1 aide can take care of 12 people and give them the attention that is needed. Elders press their buttons for help and it may take a while for a response. Some elders there don't receive showers on a timely basis because they are short handed on staff. This is unacceptable. Communication is a real problem with the staff and admin.Brenda Westbrook

This program is a MUST! Nu Leif Logistics has opened their doors for many future nurses to start their journey to success. They’ve given free opportunities to individuals who weren’t able to afford the program and both Shoni and Ashley have a love for nursing/teaching you want to experience. If you’re in the Little Rock area or even close by, contact them. You will not regret it!Shonta Dobbins

Choosing to go through the Nu Leif Cna program is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I felt welcomed with open arms from the start and the course was very thorough but also very fun, I looked forward to everyday of the course. 10/10 I definitely recommend.Jada Pearson

Great instructors, great schedule! You will love miss Ashley and Shoni. They really educate you on what you need to know and take their time with you instead of just rushing through and not caring.Courtney Gardner

My son goes there loves it!! And the people are so nice!! And we had another friend go there she was able to take her time and her own space. It's a life experience that's good and uplifting!🏆 Goes to the staff!Melissa Glover

I highly recommend First Choice Senior Care! We've used them for 9 months and they have been absolutely amazing. From the office staff to the caregivers to the owners…their professionalism has been nothing like I've ever seen! The caregivers have big hearts and the office staff and owners have been a huge source of knowledge for our family and have gone above and beyond the call for us. I'm so thankful we found y'all!Cathy Gammill

My mother has a First Choice Senior Care caregiver. We love her! My mother looks forward to seeing her. Rachelle does things for my mom, but our family had also benefitted from these services. It is nice for us to have someone that we trust and can count on, other than us, that sees Mom on a regular basis. She has become part of our family.Cathy Fox

I have been working at First Choice Senior Care for over an year now. The company truly cares for the clients that they provide care for and their employees as well. The owners are hands on which makes a big difference. It's great to work for a company that cares about the elders in their community.Candice Carroll

This program was amazing! I loved everything, the teacher an how much I learned just in a couple days words couldn’t even be explained!!! & it’s very affordable highly recommendTevon King

For a little over 2 years I was an employee at Good Sheperd, ending on 12/2020. Since then, I have worked at or visited LTC facilities, retirement and memory care. Across the states of Texas, Louisiana and of-course I must include Arkansas. All of this being said, I have YET to come across a facility as professional, clean or organized as good shepherd. Concern of the residents truly is of high regard here and it is obvious from the kindness, cleanliness and the management over staff ((of each department)) Trickling down directly from the administrator Mr. Lamb, and on to the nursing dept, therapy & so forth, everyone is awesome!!! If you’re looking for a place to work, work here! If you’re a hard worker and good person, it will pay off for you in the long run as an employee here. If you’re looking for a place to take your loved one for rehab or long term, you’ve found a place! Yes, nearly 2 years have passed however I have a friend with a loved one inside. The facility is still great 😊😊 Thank you GS!Mikeydrua Walton

My husband was recently a rehab patient. He was there for two weeks before I noticed that they had not taken out his dentures, partials or brushed his teeth. He was transferred to another room and I found him in a different bed. I found his wheelchair alarm not connected once and not on his chair another time. CNA's and aides changed routinely and the excuses were he's new to me. Edema in his legs. Very unprofessional. He had multiple inflamed scabs on his legs that are being treated now. My husband came home missing most of his belongings. I had been complaining about clothes lost from the very beginning of his stay. PT never got him walking. His first in home therapy session yesterday he walked 21 feet and today 44 ft. I would definitely not recommend.Susan Smith

This facility is top-notch! The administration and staff took excellent care of my father. From the caring and loving atmosphere provided for the residents to the attentiveness to every detail was so apparent to my family. The staff also came along side me and took care of my mother in which she needed rehabilitation also. I would highly recommend this facility for any member of your family and you can feel very comfortable knowing that they are cared for in every aspect of their daily living! Thank you again Good Shepherd for being part of my family and taking care of my loved ones!!! You definitely deserve a 5-star!!!Sherrie DeLuca

It’s a known fact that these people only care about MONEY! they do not off support to their staff we were told that NUMBERS are more important than our sanity…. They accept kids without having the staff to correctly care for them. Teachers are forced to deal with child with certain needs with no training… they don’t let you take off your forced to call in and miss pay. They don’t care how stressed out their teachers are and refuse to look into issues brought to them. Management will cover their own backs and throw you under the bus for absolutely no reason. Kids are constantly getting hurt and instead of taking ownership management covers up the facts be careful with your kids and your job when dealing with this place… the turn over rate is extremely high and you will not be respected by teachers or parents this is not a good place to work or bring your kidsLaquita Sumpter

This facility they lady at the front desk is very rude and disrespectful. They would not see my child for a speech evaluation because I could not pay them the full quoted price upfront and not just pay half then be billed as I was told over the phone was an option. They will not work with low income families that don't qualify for state aid. They are money hungry jerks. Then after the speech evaluation is done and therapy starts they want to bill the card on file directly and not actually send you a bill and let you pay it.Christopher Coning

This happened on 9/24/21….they didn’t even call me to inform me of what happened!!! All they gave me was excuses…saying my child was in another child personal space!!! 2 times!! How do they let this happen!! I know my baby cried and yet they let this happen twice!!!!! No1 was watching the kids, I’m sure…the director have another excuse! They are under staffed!!! I’m super upset!!!Sandra Rose

Pulaski County's Adult Education program, located in Jacksonville, will help you earn your GED, a W.A.G.E. certificate and will soon have CNA classes. Enrollment means all services are free to you! Find the website at gedwage.com and learn more.Christi Gillmore

I am so glad I made the decision to attend AECC. The enrollment process was very straightforward and I was able to start the program quickly. I feel like I got exactly what I needed out of the classes to be able to pass the state exam. I also appreciate that after graduation they provide opportunities for students to connect with employers. If your looking for a school, you should definitely start here.Shenika Reed

I absolutely loved it here great staff my instructor was Natalie Hughes she was amazing at the beginning she told us she was gonna teach us everything and make sure everyone made it and she did!! So if your thinking of getting your CNA RMA Pharmacy Tech definitely give them a try also I love me a black owned business and I fully support this one 💕Keiya Williams

I attended here the first year it was open and had an amazing time! I learned about many things through the Industrial Technology program which helped get me career ready. We went over many different topics and the students had input on what we learned about. The two professors I had there were amazing too! Mr. T was always happy to answer questions for us and Mr. Westbrook really helped me figure out what I wanted for myself and was there when I needed something explained. Although our class gave him a heck-of-a time, he was super patient and always put us first. This program offered safety precautions and made us aware of the dangers and also helped us get a head start by getting us certified in things that we needed. The staff members were all very welcoming and warming and were there for anything and everything. They did research and asked what kind of things colleges and career opportunities looked for the most and took it upon themselves to teach us and ready us for those things. The atmosphere of the program was great! I loved how we were able to express ourself and put input into the program and it helped us take it very seriously. Scott was also always there to help us and explain the program to us. 10 out of 10, I would definitely recommend.Reign Cyz

When times are hard and people are trying to complete their education and get a job, who is there to help, no one because everyone is so paranoid about the "pandimic" they won't even hold classes. You would think that as long as this nightmare has been going on someone in the school system would have come up with a way where they could still continue to do their job and serve the public. I hope you are all enjoying getting paid for doing nothing. This program as is the whole public school system is a disgrace.Michelle Hastings
