Nursing Assistant
The Nursing Assistant (NA) functions as a member of the nursing care team and assists licensed nursing staff in the care of patients / residents receiving preventive, acute, sub-acute chronic, maintenance, and hospice care. The distinguishing factor is that patient / resident assignments typically involve more complex nursing needs which can vary within a range of predictable to unpredictable requirements. The NA also assumes a peer education / mentorship.
