It really isn't bad. I've done both CNA and HHA and enjoyed both. As a HHA you have a little more freedom being that you do only have 1 pt as caliotter3 stated. It does make it nice. From time to time you will have a pt or their family that can take advantage of the situation and ask you to do things that are questionable, ie..I had one lady who was deaf and a recovering alcoholic and she repeatedly asked me to pick her up a bottle of vodka . I told her I couldn't do that and she reported to my supervisor that I was not doing my job properly, leaving out that she was asking me to by her booze. I told my supervisor and we all decided that I would pick up another client. She ended up getting a HHA who did by her booze and her family found out and the agency got into a little bit of hot water.

So, I have to wait until the cna class opens up, in the meantime I was curious what yall know about being a Home Health Aide, what it is? What does it encompass? Any information would be helpful.
