Advocacy Group helps family get in-home support! Only drawback: judge awards more CNA care than LVN. CNA (certified nursing assistants can’t give medications, not even a bandaid with antibiotic cream) They are not licensed nurses. They can be helpful, but it leaves the parents having to still worry about rescue meds, regular meds, prescribed suppositories, etc…since cna can’t typically do this…also CNA’s are difficult to find…..massive shortage, even worse than the LVN shortage! How is it that so many people are unemployed but there are openings for CNA/LVN work all over California!! Doesn’t anyone want to be a nurse or do home health these days? It can be a very good job…with many rewards other than a paycheck.
