Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering for certified nursing assistants who want hospice/home-care experience with a large healthcare organization. Clinicians seeking non-clinical roles or career pivots should generally skip this because it is direct patient care.

Who should apply

Current CNAs, nursing assistants, nursing students or graduates with CNA certification, and allied health aides interested in hospice, home care, or palliative-support work.

CV angle

Frame real CNA or caregiving experience around direct patient care, ADLs, hospice/end-of-life support, care-plan adherence, patient monitoring and documentation, family communication, safety and mobility assistance, and reliable home-visit logistics; do not position this as a non-clinical transition.

Skills to highlight

  • Personal care and activities of daily living support
  • Hospice and end-of-life comfort care
  • Patient observation and status reporting
  • Care plan adherence under RN direction
  • Patient documentation
  • Family communication and emotional support
  • Safety principles and body mechanics
  • Home care and reliable transportation

Role summary

A CNA hospice aide provides hands-on personal care and homemaking support to hospice patients in home or community settings, assists with daily living activities, documents changes, and works under a nurse-directed care plan while supporting patients and families.
