CNA Classes Davie, FL

A strong desire to care for others is the first criteria for a career as a health professional. Certified Nursing Assistants help patients or residents maintain their health, well-being, and dignity under the supervision of a registered nurse. They assist with daily living activities, such as bathing, grooming, dressing, feeding, and toileting. While there are many options for employment, the majority of CNAs work in long-term care facilities, assisting residents who need round the clock supervision.
