As both an employer and leader in senior living, I strongly support the proposed changes to allow prospective CNA's to obtain their training through alternative and currently unavailable settings. Having completed training as a CNA years ago, I have a heightened awareness of their obligations that will help address the skills needed and ultimately result in improved staffing in our industry.   

Thank you for your consideration of this much needed solution. Ultimately, your decision will help provide quality care for the many residents across the Commonwealth.
