The state of New Hampshire often refers to CNA as LNAs (Licensed Nursing Assistant) because the state issues licenses not certificates.  LNA programs are offered throughout the State to fill in the shortage of skilled medical professionals. To work as LNAs in state hospitals, and long-term care facilities, it is necessary to follow the regulations proposed by federal law.
