Renew your CNA for FREE!

Hillcrest Health Services provides an amazing opportunity for those looking to jump back into healthcare!

We are offering the chance to select candidates with a strong interest in enhancing the lives of aging adults to reactivate your lapsed/inactive CNA certification for free.

This program requires at least a six-month employment commitment working full-time or part-time at one of Hillcrest's skilled nursing facilities after completion of the CNA recertification.

Due to state requirements, we can allow you to work in a restricted position immediately following completion of the recertification until your license is showing active on the DHHS registry.

What should I have to be considered for this program?

  • A clear background screen.
  • Must be willing to work at least 20 hours a week.


  • Reliable transportation.
  • Compassion and dedication to care for others.
  • A lapsed or inactive CNA license in the state of Nebraska.


The CNA recertification is completed through our partner, Quality Career Pathways. They offer two different renewal options:

  • Re-test - this offers you a chance to retake your skills and written exams. (Best option for those who recently lapsed/worked as a CNA less than a year ago).
  • Refresher course - this offers you the ability to take a 3-hour class followed by retaking your skills and written exams. (Best option for those who have been lapsed for a year or more).
