The CNA Association

There are many benefits to being a member of the National Association of Health Care Assistants (NAHCA). As the CNA Association, we stand together to demonstrate our professional pride and advocate for policies and practices that advance certified nursing assistants in their careers as well as their personal lives. NAHCA members represent nursing homes, assisted living, home care, hospice, and even hospital care. We have a large number of CNA members nationwide.

Short Film Application

NAHCA is making a short film about the heroism of CNAs during the pandemic, and we want you and your experiences, good and bad, happy and sad, to be part of it. As we continue our advocacy efforts in Congress and the administration with legislators and policymakers, we want to hear from CNAs who are interested in being on camera to tell their stories of fear, sadness, courage, and heroism.
