Hello, I'm new to these forums and I'm here because I'm looking for advice. For the last several years I've worked dead end jobs in food service, and now I realize I need to do something different. My ultimate goal is to be a physical therapist, but my Mom (A R.N.) suggested that I should become a CNA. I really think that this could be a very good thing for me since I already know so much growing up with a nurse for a mother and all. So basically I'm just asking for advice. What should I expect with training and the job itself? Thanks, Lily
