  1. In some states you only have to be 16. I started my training at my vocational school when I was 15, though they have gotten tougher about not starting patient care until you are 16. I was working as a CNA by my 17th birthday. Call some local CNA programs to see if they would accept you. It is GREAT experience if you want to be a nurse, I think all potential nurses should do it! The pay isn't bad either, so go for it if it is legal is Wyoming.


  2. 18

  3. Well it depends. I go to a vocational school so they teach me our trade. Mine is medical I think we can take our CNA test during junior year so I'd be 16 or 17. Unless it is senior year then I'd be 17 or 18.
