Start by completing a certified nursing assistant program and any state-required psychiatric care training. Employers hiring at this level look for clinical rotations, hands-on experience with behavioral health patients, and strong communication skills. Highlighting relevant coursework, volunteer work in mental health settings, or a practicum placement can give entry level candidates a clear edge over applicants with no direct experience.
