  • @thegoodlooking2011. All people including cna's, nurses and therapist are there for the patients and there well being. I am a therapist and in the past have been a CNA. Teamwork is key.

  • @Jay083088 That is so true. I was trained in a nursing home and volunteer in hospice but currently working in home health CNA. I have seen CNAs don't get much breaks. That's why PT's and OT's have assistants in their field to do that stuff and not just depend on CNA's. CNA's are helpers of nurses and not therapists. The word nurse assistant apparently is not sinking through.

  • Those OT's and PTA's and OTA's don't really know how busy the CNA really is. Sometimes the only break they get in the whole day is their lunch break. No 15 minutes at all. Especially when dealing with 10-15 patients all constantly on their lights, not wanting to do anything for themselves and having to toilet every two hours. Very demanding. Very frustrating. Very busy. We don't have time to do all that range of motion esp if a patient is fighting back or being difficult or LAZY.
