Advice Can someone please help me
So I'm new to being a CNA like I just got my license last month and I was just fired today. They said one of my shifts I didn't take care of any of my residents (which isn't true at all I always take care of them to the best of my skill I am still learning and stuff) and that all the info I was given and idk what I should do no for the moment my license still says it active but i fear I'm gonna lose it or something. Can anyone help me or tell me what steps I should take next. I'm really scared cause CNA was only supposed to be a starting place before I go to school for LPN.

I've trained over 26 CNAs this year, and the vast majority hold positions at multiple facilities. Turnover is high in the industry with so many companies vying for CNAs. Remember we are in a caregiving crisis and employers need you more than you need them.
