While playing favorites certainly isn't acceptable as a Certified Nursing Assistant, it is okay to talk about what your ideal patient is like. If possible, try to think about a great patient you worked closely with in the past and discuss what made that relationship excellent. You don't have to talk about a particular patient by name, but be sure to highlight the qualities that made you fall in love with them. Whatever qualities that your favorite patient has, be sure to keep your answer positive and relative to the patients you would be caring for at Adventist Health.

"One of my favorite patients was named Rose. Rose was always so happy to see me and tell me about her day. I always made a point to spend a few extra minutes with her each time I would go to her room. She was always so appreciative and said such kind words that it made my job so easy. I loved coming to work every day to see Rose. In this job, I would look to build similar relationships with patients like I had with her."
