I was a CNA from the mid to late nineties,it took me six months and I was certified to work in home health,long term and acute hospitals,I worked in all three,it was hard grueling work and I watched a lot of people die,I even had the pleasure of caring for an amazing woman who unfortunately was dying from AIDS and was with her as she took her last breathe in 1996,you must have a lot of patience,if nursing interests you go for the gusto and get your RN,then you do rewarding work and get paid very well to do so.Good luck!
