A certified nurse assistant does many things throughout the day.
Typically, the day is started by helping patients with vitals, getting them out of bed and to the bathroom.
You’ll also administer medications, help them with meals, as well as personal hygiene like showering.
You may have to dress or change dressings on wounds, rotate the patient in bed so they don’t get bed sores, help them walk, and much more.
The day will be full of lots of walking and lifting, so you will want to make sure that you have physical strength.
