Change Of Address or Name

Your current employer must be kept informed of your correct address so that you can receive your notification of continued enrollment on the Registry. Failure to keep your employer informed of an address change may jeopardize your registration status.

To change your address or name, login to your CNA365 account and select “Manage Profile”. Then select the “Edit Profile” button to change your address. If you need to change your name or Social Security Number (SSN), you will need to select the “Correction Form” button to submit a change request for Credentia review. You must upload written documentation (copy of a marriage certificate, a divorce decree, or another official document) to support your name change or SSN request.

NOTE: Name changes MUST be accompanied by official supporting documentation, such as a copy of a marriage certificate, divorce decree, or other official document.

Lapsed Certification

Under federal requirements, certification as a nurse aide becomes invalid after a lapse of twenty-four (24) consecutive months or more in the performance of paid nursing-related services. It is critical to maintain a personal file of your past work history that can be validated by your prospective employer.

Re-Certification  

Nursing Assistants on the Alabama Nurse Aide Registry must renew their certification through the Alabama Department of Public Health to stay active. You must work at least Eight (8)  hours every twenty-four (24) months in a nursing home, hospital, home health agency, hospice agency, or mental health facility for paid compensation. Volunteer work does not count. Private sitting, assisted living facilities, and doctor's office work do not count.
