Certified Nursing Assistants, also called CNAs, work under the supervision of nurses to help patients with daily living tasks. They work in collaboration with, and under the supervision of, registered nurses (RNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs) and other medical staff. CNAs work closely with patients, and can be responsible for basic care services such as bathing, grooming and feeding patients, assisting nurses with medical equipment, and checking patient vital signs. Nursing assistants are often responsible for observing and reporting how patients respond to the care that is being given.
