Nursing Assistants Week Ideas

Nursing Assistants Week


   Dance Of Gratitude Nursing Assistants
   This year, dance your way into your CNAs’ hearts! Use the balloons, buttons, posters and mints from the Nursing Assistant’s Celebration Pack throughout your facility to create a festive mood. Arrange a different dance performance for each day of the week. Monday have square dancers, Tuesday have belly dancers, Wednesday have Irish dancers, and so forth. At the end of the week, give each CNA a Certified Nursing Assistant FM Auto Scan Radio so everyone will have music to dance to his or her own beat.

   Handwriting On The Wall Nursing Assistants
   Add another guessing game to your repertoire of Nursing Assistants’ Week activities. Hand out a "Nursing Assistants: Hearts & Hands That Care" Mini Pen-On-A-Rope to each person participating in the game. Have everyone write down the same sentences, such as "I love nursing." Post these sentences on the wall. Let people try to guess each other’s handwriting. Present Drawstring Backpacks to the winners.

   Healthcare Beauties Nursing Assistants
   Your nursing assistants have great inner beauty; help this beauty shine on the outside. Make appointments for them to have professional portraits taken. Choose a photography studio that applies makeup, styles hair and provides glamorous clothing. After the photo shoots, pass out Photo Frames of Appreciation for your nursing assistants to put their photos in. Also give out "Shining Star" Spa Kits so recipients can keep up the radiant glow.

   Put It In Poetry Nursing Assistants
   Enlist others in finding the right words for highlighting the special qualities of your nursing assistants. Send an e-mail and put up notices asking workers and management to write positive poems about the nursing assistant staff; include a deadline for submission. The verses don’t necessarily have to rhyme, but rhyming can be fun. Display the poems. Give more words of appreciation by mailing out Nursing Assistants Greeting Cards, which come with a special verse. holiday gifts

   Fund-Raising Fun Nursing Assistants
   If your facility is low on money to recognize your nursing assistants, try holding a fund raiser. Ask your non-nursing staff to contribute items for a silent auction. Use "I Make A Difference" Lapel Pins to thank those who donate. Invite everyone in your organization to the auction. With the money raised, purchase "Nursing Assistants: Hearts And Hands That Care" Deluxe Tote Bags for all of your nursing assistants. Give any money left over to a favorite charity.

   Dedication Appreciation Nursing Assistants
   Reward loyalty to your organization by assembling a cute little present for your nursing assistants who have worked for you over a year. Start with packs of gum and small gift bags. Attach a note to each pack that reads, "Thanks for sticking with (name of organization)." Put the gum in the gift bags. Also include in each bag an "Attitude Is Everything" Square Sticky Pad or the whole "Attitude Is Everything" Stationery Set which comes with the sticky pad as well as
a notepad and funky pen.

   Working For A Prize Nursing Assistants
   Send your nursing assistants on a search. Create sets of letters that spell out "compassion." Make enough for one set per person. Mix up the letters, then hide them one at a time throughout your facility. Have your nursing assistants find as many letters as they can. Tell them that the goal is to spell "compassion." They will have to trade letters with each other until everyone has a complete set. When they turn in the letters, give out "Nursing Assistants: Compassion In Action" T-Shirts.

   Royal Flush Nursing Assistants
   Join the poker craze that has swept the nation! At the start of each day during National Nursing Assistants’ Week, distribute a playing card to all CNAs. On Friday, see who received the best and the worst poker hands, then give them a "Certified Nursing Assistants: Providing Comfort & Care" Polo Shirt. Thank all who participated by passing out Retractable I.D. Badge Holders.

   Simply Nuts
Nursing Assistants
   Midway through the day, surprise your nursing assistants with a snack. Pass out "Nursing Assistants: Hearts & Hands That Care" or "Certified Nursing Assistants: Providing Comfort & Care" Deluxe Translucent Travel Mugs filled with nuts. Preferably have mixes without peanuts for those who are allergic. Tell your nursing assistants, "We’re nuts about you," as they receive the mugs. The nuts will cause thirst, so also provide beverages.

   Some-Bunny Special Nursing Assistants
   Use pictures of bunny rabbits to decorate around the edges of a bulletin board. Fill the middle of the board with rabbit cutouts, made by tracing a rabbit-shaped stencil (available at craft stores). On each cutout write, "[Name] Is Some-Bunny Special." Also write a reason why that person is appreciated. Spread the warm feelings even further by giving each nursing assistant or CNA an "I’m Appreciated" Microfleece Blanket.

   Snack-a-licious Nursing Assistants
   During the year ahead, lift everyone’s spirits and create a sense of camaraderie among your CNAs by holding random "bring a snack to share" days. A few days before you would like to have a snack fest, place a note in a central location announcing your theme. A theme could be cookies, pie, chocolate, fruit, etc. At each "bring a snack to share" event, place the names of those who brought food into a drawing for prizes, such as "Certified Nursing Assistants: Providing Comfort & Care" Carabiner Key Holder/Flashlight or Manicure Kits In Translucent Cases.

   Reward Perfection
Nursing Assistants
   Plan a ceremony to honor your nursing assistants and CNAs who have perfect attendance at work. Invite everyone from your facility to be there. At the ceremony, have your local high school band play. Bring in your facility’s administrators to say congratulations, then present a Nursing Assistant’s Value Bag Of Appreciation or Certified Nursing Assistant’s Gift Box Of Appreciation to each award winner.
