I got my CNA when I was 16 through my high schools clinical program for Health Assisting, I have worked as a CNA for over a year and is currently at assisted living facility where I work in the Dementia/Alzheimers specialty unit. Most of the residents I work with dont have a problem with a Male taking care of them from what I have saw but I always make sure to maintain their privacy if they feel like they need it terms of using the bathroom.
