Is there a recording of this webinar available to view?
Great question Amy! I have reached out to NAHCA (https://www.nahcacna.org/). They tell me that they are uploading the recording now so it should be available soon. As soon as it’s available, I’ll blog again to provide the address. Take care – happy holidays!
Good morning all! NAHCA now has the recording of this valuable CNA COVID-19 Vaccine Education webinar available for viewing. Go to https://www.nahcacna.org/. You’ll see the recording front and center and the top of their homepage.
I’m a foreign RN from Haiti and a CNA over here with my knowledge what opportunities can I find.
Hello Marie. There are many opportunities for you in the U.S. I encourage you to check with the Board of Nursing in the state you live in regarding your RN status. You can also contact any LTC facility in your area about CNA opportunities. LTC facilities in particular would welcome your talents plus there is currently a waiver re: CNA training. I have no doubt that you’ll be able to find a position! Thank you for your note. Take care.
