Center Benefits
In our book, companies that recognize and invest in their CNAs and caregivers deserve all the praise in the world. You’re taking the time and resources to do what many won’t, and we applaud you for that. We’ll send out a press release to your local news, give you a shout-out on social media, and provide you with two decals for you to display.

Press Release
Upon your center’s enrollment, NAHCA will generate a press release to recognize your investment in your frontline, and your dedication to your staff and the care provided to your residents. The press release will be distributed by NAHCA to your local news outlets. We will ask - upon enrollment - your suggestions for which news outlets you would prefer.
Social Media Shout-Out
NAHCA has a broad following on social media and those that tune in for our news and updates would love to hear about the centers that go above and beyond for their caregivers. We’ll give you a shout-out on our platforms and you will be able to share the shout-out on your own social media platforms.
Educational Webinars
Several times a year, NAHCA will host interactive electronic meetings for members across the country. Every meeting will have a specific topic that will be discussed among the NAHCA presenters and the participants on the webinar. Common topics are recruitment, retention, and culture change.
CNA Week Support
NAHCA will give your center the tools you need to celebrate CNA Week every year, including a social media toolkit, a video tribute for CNAs, and more.
Additional Resources
The priority for the Champion Membership model is recognition, but we will also provide your team with the tools to take a good team and make it great! With this membership, your team will have access to professional consultation services, your own Certified Preceptors to train newly hired staff, and our brand-new Recognition Resource Library.

Certified Preceptor Course
Depending on the level you select, two or four of your CNAs or ALCs will take our Certified Preceptor Course. Once completed, they will become NAHCA Certified Preceptors and be able to train your newly hired CNAs or ALCs. The Preceptor Course has multiple modules for your selected team member to enhance their skills in being a peer mentor and trainer. Having a peer trainer and then a peer mentor has proven to reduce the level of burnout for new staff, leaving you with lower turnover and better care outcomes. Additional Preceptor Courses are available for purchase.
Member Resource Library
Our Member Resource Library is full of resources for you and your team to utilize. There are many articles and blogs to help leadership recognize their CNAs and ALCs, as well as ideas for CNAs and ALCs to recognize each other. There are many videos and learning opportunities that are right there in the Library for you and your team to check out at your leisure.
CNA Leadership Committee Documents
The CNA Leadership Committee Manual gives you everything you need for select CNAs or ALCs to develop and maintain their own Leadership Committee and work on projects that enhance the work life of the staff and the quality of life for the residents. These Committees don’t have a timeframe to be developed; they are made how you want them to be made – we just give you framework to do so.
