Support Aide to CNA Track

Transport residents or accompany ambulatory residents to dining rooms, activity areas, and therapy zones. Make unoccupied beds, assist in food service by passing trays and preparing meals, and distribute supplemental nourishments. Conduct informal activities on the nursing unit, supply fresh water, and prepare resident rooms for sleep. Clean resident equipment and maintain general area neatness. Notify therapists of unusual incidents. Work approximately 15-60 days before CNA training begins. Elderwood at Williamsville offers a paid CNA training course where trainees are clocked in during training hours. The course includes two weeks of classroom instruction followed by a clinical week.
