In California, a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) is not permitted to discontinue an intravenous (IV) line. This task is typically reserved for licensed nurses, such as Registered Nurses (RNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs), who have the training and authority to perform such procedures. CNAs can assist with patient care but must operate within their scope of practice as defined by state regulations. Always consult with a supervisor or refer to state guidelines for specific nursing tasks.
