CNAs are basically certified medical professionals who work under the constant supervision of a Registered Nurse and perform various day to day tasks for the patients, such as taking vital signs; helping them with toileting, feeding, clothing etc.; checking their dietary charts; taking care of resident's medicine chart; maintaining and recording medical history, etc. They can further advance their career by becoming a Registered Nurse. CNAs are quite in demand in many states of US at present. Once certified, they can work at many health facilities, like hospitals, assisted living cares, hospices, long term care facilities, nursing homes etc. In United States these CNAs get paid an annual salary between the brackets of $18000-$45000. The average salary is $24,000. Personal aides earn even higher than this. If you have the zeal to serve the sick and elderly people, then this could be the right career choice for you.
