Hi Ashley,
I was a CNA previously as a means to get my foot in the door with a career in nursing. While I ended up not pursuing a career in the medical field, I did find working as a CNA to be an incredibly rewarding job. You can expect that it will be extremely challenging, but you will be working directly with patients providing help and a friendly face. I would recommend reading this article for some pros and cons to becoming a CNA, and good luck!
