What is a CNA?

[Jeremy Booher]

Attention! 👀 Let's talk about CNAs - do you know what they are? 🤔 CNAs (Certified Nursing Assistants) play a crucial role in the healthcare field, providing direct care and support to patients under the supervision of a licensed nurse. 💉 They assist with daily tasks such as feeding, bathing, and taking vital signs. 💪 It takes hard work and dedication to become a CNA, but it's a rewarding job that makes a difference in people's lives. 🙌 Who else has thought about becoming a CNA? 💭 #healthcareheroes #CNA #maleCNAs #directcaregiver #hardworkpaysoff 💪

CNAs are the pillars of healthcare. I worked as a CNA for three years until I became an RN, and it's the hardest job I ever had and it was rewarding, as well, to impact the lives of so many.

Yes - this is a career path with tons of options at all times. Nursa opens up the ability to find those jobs by the shift - but I became a CNA right before going into nursing school, as I knew the career outlook ensured that I could earn money while going to college.
