CNAs (Certified Nursing Assistants)

CNAs, are healthcare professionals who provide intimate, hands-on health care to patients in medical settings under the supervision of a Registered Nurse (RN), or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN).

Most nursing assistants and orderlies work in nursing and residential care facilities and in hospitals. In order to become a Registered Nurse, one must obtain healthcare experience as a CNA.
