Why this is worth applying to
Consider only if you are a certified CNA seeking direct hospice/home-care work; this is not a practical route into non-clinical, health-tech, or healthcare-adjacent careers.
Who should apply
Certified nursing assistants with hospice, home health, long-term care, or direct patient-care experience; nursing students or healthcare graduates who already hold an active CNA certification and want end-of-life care experience.
CV angle
Frame real CNA certification and patient-care experience around ADL support, hospice comfort care, patient status documentation, care-plan adherence, safety/body mechanics, and family communication; do not present this as non-clinical transition experience.
Skills to highlight
- Activities of daily living (ADLs) support
- Hospice and end-of-life comfort care
- Patient status observation and documentation
- Care plan adherence under RN direction
- Safety principles and body mechanics
- Family and caregiver communication
- Meal preparation and feeding assistance
- CPR
