Here are five reasons nursing assistants deserve recognition, respect, and appreciation during CNA Week—and throughout the year:
CNAs are the compassionate faces that patients rely on for comfort, dignity, and reassurance during vulnerable moments
CNAs play a critical role in maintaining a safe patient environment by ensuring proper hygiene, assisting with mobility, and adhering to infection control protocols.
CNAs apply keen observation skills to help detect subtle changes in patient conditions, allowing for early intervention and preventing potential complications.
CNAs collaborate closely with nurses and other healthcare professionals, forming a cohesive team that delivers the highest quality care.
CNA work is physically demanding and involves lifting and moving patients, standing for long periods, and performing repetitive tasks.
At Sierra Post Acute we ALL thank our CNAs for their devotion and excellent care for our residents! We celebrate every one of you this week!
