Yes, because the CNA is working for hospice.
It may not be advisable to actually have that paricular relative on the CNA's caseload.

In theory yes, you can. However, in my line of work (surgical tech) we are advised to not work on family or close friends. Think about this: if your relative had an emergency and you weren't able to save her while you were doing your home visit, how wretched would you feel? It's hard enough to lose a patient, and that's what happens a lot in hospice, it would be even harder if it was your relative. Your scenario is plausible, but not psychologically good for you.

Depends on the State you live in. Also the company in which you work, have policies and procedures. I'm sure your company has addressed this issue and has an answer, already in place. Personally, search your heart and soul, do you think caring for your mom would be the best for you and her. You should be there for emotional support, to spend time and do whatever the two of you can do together and enjoy. God Bless you and your mom.

Only if the hospice hires the CNA and puts him/her on the payroll.

i can not have faith the various solutions all of us is giving! I even have been a CNA for over 5 years, and that i think of that RN's could provide as plenty recognize in the direction of CNA's as we provide to them. lots of the time CNA's are the 'eyes and ears' of the unit (or anyplace you artwork). Alot of cases CNA's will understand some pt's aches and pains extra beneficial than the nurse reason we've a tendency to artwork with them extra. i think of it relies upon on who you artwork with too. I worked in the ICU at a wellbeing center, and nearly all of the nurses helped me with 'grimy artwork'. RN's that have worked as CNA's are frequently extra empathetic reason they have been the place we are and understand that we're not making alot of money for all of the artwork that we do. yet another factor is 'are they nurses for the funds or because of the fact they like helping human beings?' the main worrying nurses I even have worked with in no way had a situation with cleansing poo or giving baths. in basic terms relies upon on character i assume. in case you're unhappy such as your job consistent with probability you could look for yet another one or communicate on your supervisor...CNA's are continuously mandatory.

Yes but there is a lot of IFs in that statement, you don't always get to care for the person you want to care for.

It seems like a conflict of interest and might be too emotionally taxing for you.
