| Aspect | Patient Sitter In Hospital | Nursing Assistant |
|---|---|---|
| Credentials | No formal certification required, but some facilities prefer CPR or basic life support training | Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) certification required |
| Work Environment | Hospitals, focusing on patient supervision and companionship | Hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care facilities, providing basic patient care |
| Job Duties | Supervising patients, ensuring safety, providing companionship | Assisting with daily activities, basic patient care, vital signs |
