Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Job Description
As a caregiver with Genesis Home Care you are appreciated for the service you provide and quality of life you deliver. Your goal as a certified nursing assistant’s (CNA) is to provide basic care and to assist with daily living activities, meal prepping, light housekeeping, and some errands that may be difficult for the client to do on their own. Because of the personal nature of the job, a certified nursing assistant must include people skills and the ability to be compassionate and the enjoyment of helping others.
At Genesis, CNA's are as much of a priority as are the clients. We try to place CNA’s off of three criteria. 1. We focus on the varying needs of the client. 2. We try to best match the client and CNA together with personality and work relationship. 3. We strive to locate you as near to your home as possible, and do all three if possible.

Bathe and dress patients
