CNA - fired from my job for alleged abuse

Published

I was fired from my job for alleged abuse. The reason was because the patient was alert and oriented. So they took the patience word over mine. But the patient waited four days after the alleged abuse happened to report it. My question is can I still work as a CNA.

Specializes in Case mgmt., rehab, (CRRN), LTC & psych.

As long as your CNA certification has not been censured or adversely affected by the abuse allegation, you can most likely continue to work as a CNA elsewhere.

I checked there is nothing on CNA certification. I have been on two interviews with nursing homes. And both decided not to hiring me. Because they why got fired I explain what happened. They chose another candidate over me.is there anything I can do or say different.
