Forest Haven Nursing Home in Jonesboro recognized the CNA Class of 2025 this past week through the presentation of pins awarded this past week. Congratulations go to Avery Toms, Janiah Walker, Mikaya Nash, Riley Walsworth, Monica Tilley and Ajoriana Hoggro on their accomplishment. 

CNA stands for “certified nursing assistant,” an entry-level role that provides vital support to both patients and nurses. From transporting, bathing, and feeding hospital patients to stocking medical supplies and logging patient information, CNAs are on the ground working to enhance patient outcomes. While a CNA is not classified as a nurse, this position is a fantastic entry point for dozens of different nursing careers.
