What is a CNA? |
|
A CNA works directly under
the direction
of a nurse to provide patients with basic care services, from daily grooming to
checking vital signs, while ensuring the safety and comfort of the patient. A CNA
is responsible for notifying the nursing staff of vital information regarding the
patient's condition both physically and mentally. CNA's help patients to feel comfortable
and secure in their environment.
