I love being a CNA, I left my last job because I felt like the residents were not getting the right care and no matter what I said would help. I ended up getting scabies from them. I built relationships with many of my residents I took care of. I love just sitting with them while they eat and listening to the stories they tell. Just being able to help people is what I want to do my end goal is to get my RN. I enjoy helping them in any way they need and being a friend and someone they know they have. A lot of times residents don't have family who come and see them, you are their family that is how I look at it. Honestly being a CNA is one of my greatest accomplishments I know it isn't much but being able to help is what I was born to do.
