Certified Nursing Assistant Jobs In US and Abroad

Where can you find Certified Nursing Assistant jobs? Well, if you’re looking for a Certified Nursing Assistant job in the United States, then you should know that a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), Patient Care Assistant (PCA), State Tested Nurse Aid (STNA) or Nursing Assistant-Registered (NA/R) is a person who assists individuals with their healthcare needs. These are who you call patients, clients and service users.

A certified nursing assistant will help in the activities of daily living (ADLs) and provide bedside care, which includes basic nursing procedures. These are done under the supervision of a Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN).

However, in other countries like the United Kingdom, a CNA can also be called a Nursing Assistant (NA), Auxiliary Nurse (Aux-N), Patient Care Associate (PCA), Nursing Tech (NT), Healthcare Assistant (HCA), Healthcare Support Worker (HSW) or Clinical Support Worker (CSW). Nevertheless, the responsibilities are the same.

Greetings!
I am a Philippine Registered Nurse who is aiming to work in Us particularly in Maui, Hawaii.. I just wanna ask if I could practice my profession there even as a Nursing assistant only? And if I could, do I still need to take an exam? My problem is that I dont have amount for the NCLEX that is why I am finding job that does not require exams.
Thank you.
