Why this is worth applying to

Clinicians should consider this only if they want direct hospice CNA/LNA work; it is not a strong fit for doctors, pharmacists, or others seeking a non-clinical transition.

Who should apply

State-certified CNAs/LNAs with hospice or home-care interest, nursing students or healthcare graduates seeking entry-level clinical experience, and allied health workers comfortable with hands-on end-of-life personal care.

CV angle

Frame the CV around state CNA/LNA certification, CPR, direct patient care, ADL support, hospice or end-of-life comfort care, patient status observation and documentation, adherence to RN-written care plans, mobility/transfer safety, meal preparation/feeding support, and family communication. Do not overstate non-clinical or leadership experience.

Skills to highlight

  • Activities of daily living support
  • Hospice and end-of-life comfort care
  • Patient observation and documentation
  • Care plan adherence under RN supervision
  • Mobility, transfers, positioning, and range of motion
  • Meal preparation and feeding assistance
  • Family communication and emotional support
  • CPR and safety/body mechanics

Role summary
