Nursing assistants provide basic care and help with activities of daily living. They typically do the following: * Clean and bathe patients or residents * Help patients use the toilet and dress * Turn, reposition, and transfer patients between beds and wheelchairs * Listen to and record patients' health concerns and report that information to nurses * Measure patients' vital signs, such as blood pressure and temperature * Serve meals and help patients eat. Some nursing assistants also may dispense medication, depending on their training level. In nursing homes and residential care facilities, assistants are often the principal caregivers. They have more contact with residents than other members of the staff. Because some residents stay in a nursing home for months or years, assistants may develop close relationships with their residents. Nursing assistants and orderlies work as part of a healthcare team under the supervision of licensed practical or licensed vocational nurses and registered nurses.
