Can a cna perform CPR on full code?

In the United States, the answer to this question depends on the state. In some states, only licensed healthcare professionals such as doctors and nurses are allowed to perform CPR on full code patients. In other states, certified nursing assistants (CNAs) are also allowed to perform CPR on full code patients if they have received the necessary training. Some facilities may have additional policies or protocols regarding who is allowed to perform CPR, such as requiring that CNAs obtain specific certification or complete additional training.
