Clearview Nursing Home

• Mount Ayr, Iowa

• Certified Nursing Aide

  • Dec 2008 - Apr 2010

  As a CNA I made sure residents were well at all times. And assisted with any help they required, such as waking up, bathing, eating, and going to bed. I provided dental care and peri-care to residents who needed it and other daily needs. I also wrote in charts for nurses so they could meet respected goals of residents and studied charts and medical records that allowed us to be specific in our jobs for the resident.
