Hello. My name is Melanie and I live in Old Fort, TN. I am currently considering getting my CNA certification. I would like to do this before going back to school to obtain my RN. I would like to work in L&D so I was wondering if any local hospitals in my area allow CNA's to work in L&D. I have already checked with our local hospital and its not allowed. However, CNA's can work in Women's Services.
