Morning Pointe Senior Living
Meeting the
Needs of
Her Residents
Jan Hall is no stranger at Morning Pointe of Hixson. For the last 11 years, Hall has been serving the senior living community as a CNA – a role that’s brought her a lot of variety, and a lot of joy. She explains, “As a CNA, I’m responsible for meeting the needs of the residents in my care; this ranges from bathing and dressing to mobility and much more. Specifically, I work in memory care, so my role involves quite a bit of conversation and reassurance.” One thing is for sure – it’s a job that keeps Hall busy. “I am never bored!” laughs Hall. “The work of a CNA is so important, and part of why they’ll always be in demand. I feel fortunate to work with my residents every day and be a part of their lives.”
What we do really makes a difference in our residents’ lives.”
