Frequently Asked Questions

Certified Nurse Aides are the bedside professionals for a patient/client in a hospital, rehab, skilled nursing facility, long term care or home setting. Certified Nurse Aides assist patients/clients with bathing, eating, dressing, toileting and exercise. Because they have so much direct contact with residents/clients, they are the “eyes and ears,” for doctors and nurses. Certified Nurse Assistants are frequently the first healthcare providers who note and report abnormal signs and symptoms that save the lives of many patients/clients.

Hospitals employ CNA’s in a variety of roles. Long-term care facilities are big employers of CNA’s. Rehabilitation hospitals also employ Certified Nurse Aides. Home care is another huge employer of CNA’s. Baby boomers are here followed closely by the Generation X population. Many families keep their seniors at home with compassionate outside support. Because Certified Nurse Aides have the skills to administer quality care and the licensing to be part of the healthcare team, they are in demand in the home care sector.
