Most people who go into the Certified Nursing Assistant profession are naturally attracted to helping people who are most in need of help. They thrive on helping patients through tough times by providing both medical care and emotional support. No matter how many years of experience you would be bringing to the table at Adventist Health, you must stay motivated to provide top-of-the-line care to their patients. As you are aware, this job can be exhausting and emotionally draining, so you need to stay motivated in your work environment. The interviewer asks this question to determine what motivates you and determine if the environment at Adventist Health would be a good fit for you as their next CNA. To successfully answer this question, be prepared to explain what motivates you to become a better CNA. A more successful answer would include a specific example of a situation that motivated you to continue or better your nursing practice.

"When I began my pursuit of a Certified Nursing Assistant certification, I knew that I was born to help people when they are at their most vulnerable. In any environment, whether it be outpatient, inpatient, or skilled nursing, making a positive difference in the day of each of my patients is what drives me to become a better nurse, and it makes all the hard and emotional days worth it. Because I know I am making a difference in the lives of others, it is easy for me to get up and come to work each day."
