Why this was classified this way

  • Per diem

Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Only consider this if you are a certified CNA specifically seeking per diem hospice work. It is not a practical non-clinical transition role for doctors, pharmacists, dentists, or most licensed clinicians.

Who should apply

Certified nursing assistants with current CPR and reliable transportation who want per diem hospice/home care work; healthcare graduates who already hold a CNA credential and want direct end-of-life care experience.

CV angle

Frame your CV around state CNA certification, CPR, direct ADL/personal care support, hospice or end-of-life comfort care, care plan adherence, patient observation and reporting, documentation, ambulation/transfer/range-of-motion support, meal preparation, and reliable home-visit transportation.

Skills to highlight

  • Activities of daily living support
  • Hospice and end-of-life comfort care
  • Patient observation and status reporting
  • Care plan adherence
  • Clinical documentation
  • Ambulation and transfer assistance
  • Meal preparation and feeding support
