Yes a CNA can perform CPR on a full code. A number of things will dictate who will do compressions & who will do breaths. The first on the scene will start CPR. On arrival, usually the RT will do the breaths (bag) and a man (if a woman started CPR) will do (take over) the compressions, especially if it is a large person. Different places may have different protocols on who does what on a code so check where you are working on what the protocols are.

Often paying for CNA classes can bring hard times to many families. But finding free CNA classes aren'tt really as easy as finding paid CNA classes. The CNA class has a huge cost because of various training and instructional materials such as CNA instructors, CPR training, books, stethoscope and other clinical utilities. These costs combine to form a huge price tag which is hard for many to pay. For those who really can'tt afford to pay for the courses, there are free CNA classes available too. You just need to head in correct direction to find it out.
