Becoming a CNA in Wyoming
Wyoming's CNA pathway is administered by the Wyoming State Board of Nursing (WSBN) in Cheyenne, with the Department of Health's Aging Division Healthcare Licensing and Surveys unit operating the public-facing Wyoming CNA Registry. This dual-agency structure is unusual: most states route CNAs through either the Board of Nursing or the Department of Health, but Wyoming uses both, with WSBN handling individual licensing and the Department of Health handling registry verification.
