If you’re a certified nursing assistant (CNA) working in a skilled nursing facility, you’ve probably been handed a login to PointClickCare’s Point of Care system. It’s the tool you use every shift to document care, check resident details, and keep your daily tasks organized. But the login process and the interface itself can feel confusing when you’re first starting out. This guide walks you through the exact steps — from your first login to charting at the bedside — so you can focus on what matters: your residents.

Two login portals, one pattern: CNAs use a dedicated Point of Care login while employees access a separate enterprise portal. The table below shows the key URLs and what each is used for.

Portal URL Purpose
CNA POC Login www25.pointclickcare.com/poc/cna/pocresidentlist.xhtml Direct CNA access to resident list and care documentation
Employee Login efs.pointclickcare.com/poc/userLogin.xhtml Full EHR access for nurses, administrators, and other staff
Account Portal accounts.pointclickcare.com Central login page for all PointClickCare services
Official Participant Guide Net Health Therapy Page Step-by-step instructions for logging in from Chrome or Safari

Support Page PointClickCare Support Official help for forgotten passwords and account issues

The implication: Using the correct URL prevents confusion and ensures you land on the right interface. CNAs who use the employee portal may see a different dashboard and lack CNA-specific features.

How do CNAs log in to PointClickCare Point of Care?

Step-by-step login process

The catch: Each facility configures the login slightly differently. Some use a web-based version, others an installed application that launches from a desktop icon (CNA POC Plan of Care 2026).

Troubleshooting login issues

What this means: Most login issues stem from using the wrong URL or forgotten credentials. Security is taken seriously — never share your login or use another CNA’s account.

The upshot

CNAs who use the correct dedicated login page avoid the confusion of landing on the employee portal. The CNA interface is streamlined for resident list and care tasks — not the full EHR.

What is the PointClickCare POC app and how to use it?

Downloading the app

  • The Point of Care app is available for Android and iOS devices (Point of Care CNA Guide)
  • Use the same login credentials as the web portal (Point of Care CNA Guide)
  • Download from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store by searching “PointClickCare POC”
  • The app allows CNAs to chart care activities at the bedside, reducing back-and-forth to a computer (PointClickCare POC CNA Login Guide)

The trade-off: The app is convenient but may not be available on all Android versions, and some facilities may not support it yet (Point of Care CNA Guide).

Features of the POC app

  • Access resident information, including medications, allergies, and care notes (Point of Care CNA Guide)
  • Document activities of daily living (ADLs), vitals, and other care tasks in real time
  • View your assigned resident list and update care plans directly from the device
  • The app syncs with the web version, so data entered on mobile appears on the facility’s system

Why this matters: The mobile app turns any bedside moment into a documentation opportunity. Instead of accumulating notes and entering them later, CNAs can complete charting on the spot, reducing errors and saving time.

How to access resident details and focus on CNA tasks in Point of Care?

Viewing the resident list

  • After logging in, the resident list displays all individuals assigned to you for the shift (Point of Care CNA Guide)
  • Each resident entry shows their name, room number, and key care indicators
  • Click on a resident to open their detail page, which includes medical history, allergies, medications, and care notes (Point of Care CNA Guide)
  • You can also see scheduled tasks like vitals checks, baths, and meal assistance

The pattern: The resident list is your command center. Everything you need for a shift is organized by resident, making it easy to prioritize and document.

Using the CNA focus feature

  • CNA focus mode in PointClickCare POC strips away non-essential elements to show only the tasks relevant to your role (Point of Care CNA Guide)
  • It streamlines tasks like tracking vitals, documenting ADLs, and recording intake/output
  • The focus view presents a to-do list for each resident, letting you check off completed items
  • This feature reduces clutter and helps CNAs stay on track during busy shifts

What this means: The CNA focus feature is designed specifically for the CNA workflow. If you’re not using it, you’re likely wasting time navigating through unnecessary menus.

The catch

CNA focus mode only works if your facility has enabled it in the system setup. Some facilities may still use the standard view, so ask your supervisor if the feature is available.

For CNAs in skilled nursing facilities, the choice is clear: use the dedicated CNA login URL, download the mobile app if your facility supports it, and leverage the CNA focus feature to streamline your daily tasks. Doing so cuts documentation time and reduces errors, letting you spend more time with residents.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use PointClickCare POC on my phone?

Yes, the Point of Care app is available for Android and iOS. Use the same login credentials as the web portal. Check with your facility if they support the app.

What if I forget my password?

Look for a “Forgot Password” link on the login page. If that doesn’t work, contact your facility IT or supervisor to reset it.

How do I update resident details?

After logging in, select a resident from the list to open their detail page. There you can update care notes, vitals, and scheduled tasks.

Is PointClickCare POC the same as the full EHR?

No. POC is a streamlined version designed for CNAs to document care at the point of care. The full EHR is used by nurses and administrators for broader clinical tasks.

Do I need special training to use POC?

Most facilities provide basic training. The official participant guide and video tutorials are available to help you get started.

How do I log out of PointClickCare POC?

Look for a logout button in the menu or profile area. Always log out when finished to protect resident data.

Can I view multiple residents at once?

Yes, the resident list shows all assigned residents. You can switch between residents by clicking their names.

Bottom line: PointClickCare POC is not a full EHR — it’s a focused tool for CNAs. New users: use the dedicated CNA login URL and the mobile app if available. Experienced users: enable CNA focus mode to cut through clutter. For facility administrators: ensure clear login instructions and training materials are provided to every CNA.
