Nurse aides, also known as nursing assistants or certified nursing assistants (CNAs), provide essential support to patients in healthcare settings. They assist with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating, ensuring that patients receive the care they need. Nurse aides often work under the supervision of registered nurses or licensed practical nurses. In addition to personal care, nurse aides monitor patients' vital signs, report changes in their condition, and help maintain a clean and safe environment. Their role is crucial in hospitals, nursing homes, and home healthcare, contributing to the overall well-being of patients and supporting the healthcare team.
