Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA)

Your Care Makes the Difference

Ottawa Health Care Center is hiring Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) to join our team!

Some of the most important moments in long-term care happen during the everyday things — helping a resident get ready for the morning, sharing a conversation during a meal, offering reassurance on a difficult day, or simply taking the extra minute to make someone feel seen and cared for.

That's why we're looking for compassionate, dependable CNAs who understand just how important their role is.

At Ottawa Health Care Center, our team is guided by four core values: work ethic, integrity, compassion, and competence. We're looking for people who bring those values to work every day and want to be part of a team that genuinely cares about its residents and one another.
