Thompson to Host Info Session on Becoming a CNA June 11
UR Medicine Thompson Health is hosting an information session at 3 p.m. on Tuesday, June 11, for those interested in beginning careers as certified nursing assistants (CNAs).

Course graduates are guaranteed a CNA position at Thompson’s M.M. Ewing Continuing Care Center, which has a five-star overall rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

The one-hour information session will be held at the Continuing Care Center, 350 Parrish Street in Canandaigua. Those planning to attend must first register by emailing
