Nurse Assisting

Welcome to Certified Nursing Assistant at Mesa Community College!

Among the vast array of health care careers lies the area of direct care giving. These professionals are often classified as Certified Nursing Assistants [CNA].

CNAs can be found in nursing homes, hospitals, adult day health centers, assisted living facilities, even personal homes. Wherever there is a need for personal care, Certified Nursing Assistants are the ones who, for the most part, perform the most basic needs for patients, young and old alike. You will work under the supervision of a registered nurse. Since CNAs have extensive daily contact with each patient, you are key to providing vital information on the patients' conditions to the nurse.
