i have not worked in a hospital for about 5-6 years but we always had cnas...some places are going for total care and i rather like it...because you can have some highly competent caregivers but you can have some that leave pts wet...make up vital signs;;and in general are not trustworthy ... if you do it your self you know that the care has been given
i dont know about other states, bot in m state it is illegal for them to require cnas to work for any specified period of time, although they ask for a year (i am not sure why but the DON said so)-- seems like home health would count-- in my state cnas can do home health too--
Some nursing homes also have their own training programs. They train you and you work for them for a specified amount of time. After the time set you can either stay their or apply elswhere.
