This study identifies factors related to job tenure among certified nursing assistants (CNAs) working in nursing homes. The study uses 2004 data from the National Nursing Home Survey, the National Nursing Assistant Survey, and the Area Resource File. OLS regression analyses were conducted with length of job tenure as the dependent variable.

This study introduces the first National Nursing Assistant Survey (NNAS), a major advance in the data available about certified nursing assistants (CNAs) and a rich resource for evidence-based policy, practice, and applied research initiatives.
