22. What documentation experience within an EMR system would you bring to our team as a Certified Nursing Assistant?
How to Answer
Because of your attention to detail and your organizational skills, the administrative portion of being a Certified Nursing Assistant should come second nature to you. Talk about your roles in documenting patient notes within an electronic medical record system and what system you are familiar with working on. Also, talk about the importance of timely and accurate notes and what impact being timely has on patient care.

1st Answer Example
"In my current role, I am responsible for documenting vital signs, administered medications, body measurements like height and weight and food intake through a patient's day. I currently work in the Cerner system and was able to learn this system quickly and efficiently. My documentation is always done promptly because the physicians and RN's rely on these notes when they are with the patient."

2nd Answer Example
"As a CNA, when I'm not caring for patients, I'm working on various administrative duties. I rely on my great attention to detail to write up complete and accurate notes and reports to pass along to my colleagues. I have experience working in two different EMR systems throughout my career. If hired here, my priority during orientation would be to master your system."
