The wage increase was finally approved after a fight that left me entirely drained. It feels surreal to see this change happen when so many doors were slammed in our faces. Stay vigilant because we need to ensure that every facility actually follows through on these new rates.

Seeing this grow has been exhausting but deeply grounding. It is clear that so many of you see the toll this work takes and refuse to look away anymore.

I think there definitely is a great need for more wages and more quote ratio for how many patients per CNA. There is a great gap already in care the disabled and elderly and way to much turn over in staff.
I'm tired of working short staff, underappreciated and underpaid for my skills. Why RN's and LPN's salaries go high and CNA's salary stays very low? I feel it's not right just because CNAs don't have a degree that companies ( nursing - homes ) pay CNAs such a low degrading salary for our skills.
We are under paid and under appreciated, however I love taking care of my residents, all 14 of them and sometimes more. It is a hard field to be in emotionally, physically, and mentally. If you have never seen a nurses aide in action please visit your loca nursing home.
As a cna I made 7.25/hour it takes a long time to make 10/15 an hour. CNAs do a physically demanding job. Our employers should value us more and we should get paid a decent wage. People at burger king made what we make for crying out loud.
We are hard working and very under paid. I love what i do, i love taking care of people its a blessing to know i can give them them best i can in there last days of life. But would love to take care of my family a little better too.
I’m a patient care tech at a hospital in Florida making $16 an hr and feel as if we should be appreciated more and deserves than what we make
CNA’s deserve a much higher pay rate than what they offer. It’s ridiculous if u ask me. Being a Cna is hard work and takes a tole on your body. Grocery stores make more fast food make more it’s not right.!!!

I love my job , I work in a facility as well in homes. My previous job was of 23 yrs of physical labor with higher pay of course and never did I work as hard or not be able to lift my legs into my car at the end of the shift as I do as a CNA but I love my job and the care I can give to others
