Why this is worth applying to
Worth considering for certified LNAs/CNAs who want hospice or home-care work. It is not a fit for clinicians seeking a non-clinical career transition.
Who should apply
Certified nursing assistants/LNAs interested in hospice or home care, nursing students who already hold CNA certification, and healthcare graduates seeking entry-level direct-care experience.
CV angle
Frame real CNA/LNA experience around hospice-adjacent skills: ADL support, comfort care, patient observation and reporting, care-plan adherence, family communication, documentation, safety/body mechanics, and CPR. Do not present it as non-clinical experience.
Skills to highlight
- Activities of daily living support
- Hospice and comfort care
- Patient observation and documentation
- Care plan adherence
- Family communication and emotional support
- Safety principles and body mechanics
- CPR
- Meal planning and feeding assistance
