Which of the following is NOT a responsibility of a CNA?

The responsibility of conducting complex surgeries is not within the scope of practice for a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). CNAs are primarily trained to provide basic care and support to patients under the supervision of licensed nursing staff. Their duties are focused on assisting with daily living activities, monitoring vital signs, providing emotional support, and helping patients with mobility.

Complex surgeries require a high level of medical expertise and are performed by trained surgeons and surgical teams, which is far beyond the training and responsibilities assigned to CNAs. Understanding the roles and limitations of a CNA is vital for ensuring patient safety and quality care in healthcare settings.
