NURSING HOME ADMINISTRATOR COURSE REQUIREMENTS

Five courses in the B.S. in Healthcare Management have been approved by the New York State Department of Health, Bureau of Professional Credentialing, as meeting the educational requirement (Qualification 3) for individuals applying for nursing home administrator (NHA) licensure in the State of New York.

Students who intend to pursue licensure as nursing home administrators will meet this requirement through successful completion of the following courses:

 
Financial Management of Health Services / Y13.2673 Online Course 4
Gerontology / Y13.2678 Online Course 4
Human Resources Management / Y10.0548 Online Course 4
Legal Aspects of Healthcare / Y13.2670 Online Course 4
Nursing Home Administration / Y17.2650 * Online Course 4
* Note: The course Nursing Home Administration fulfills Qualification 5 (see Licensure Qualification 5 guidelines) because the course content “covers all of the areas as defined in 10 NYCRR 96.8.” However, the course must have been completed within the five years preceding licensure.
 

Students can take these courses as a visiting student or incorporate them into an existing degree program.

McGhee’s B.S. in Healthcare Management is deemed a “degree in the field” by the New York State Department of Health, Bureau of Professional Credentialing, which confers added benefits to the NHA candidate, including a reduction in the amount of experience necessary to satisfy Qualification 4.
