Why CNA Training Matters

Certified Nursing Assistants provide essential support to patients, assisting with personal needs like bathing, dressing, and eating, as well as monitoring vital signs and addressing health concerns. CNAs work under the supervision of licensed nurses in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, nursing homes, and home healthcare services.

The profession’s accessibility and impact make it a popular entry point into healthcare. CAL ACE Nursing Academy’s program ensures that students are well-prepared not only for certification exams but also for success in real-world clinical environments.
