Medical assistants and nurses are both responsible for updating patient charts and checking a patient's vital signs. Medical assistants, however, are more commonly responsible for administrative tasks and mainly work in doctors' offices. Nurses primarily work in hospitals and provide direct medical care to patients.

Step-by-step explanation:

Practical nursing equips you with the necessary education to become a licensed nurse. On the other hand, Health Care Assistants (HCAs) fulfill more general roles. ... They receive training similar to that of practical nurses, but with an emphasis on support and administration.
