Job description

Ready for a CNA role that offers real stability—without going back to a traditional corporate staffing agency?

NurseDash is launching an exclusive W-2 CNA program in the Pittsburgh area for clinicians who want consistent weekly hours, dependable income, and comprehensive benefits while working at a select group of partner facilities.

Unlike most agencies, NurseDash was built by healthcare operators who understand care delivery firsthand. That means better communication, more transparency, and a support model designed around helping clinicians succeed—not just filling shifts.

Why CNAs Choose NurseDash

• W-2 employment security and comprehensive benefits
• A predictable work structure at select partner facilities
• A company that feels like a partner, not a staffing middleman
• Real human support 24/7 when you need it

What You’ll Do

• Support residents with daily living activities, including mobility, grooming, dressing, and personal care
• Provide the emotional support and consistency that residents rely on
• Assist with dining services, laundry needs, and resident comfort
• Maintain dignity, respect, and a safe clinical environment
• Follow facility protocols and complete any required training

Requirements

• Active CNA license
• Ability to lift 50 lbs and support residents with mobility needs
• Strong communication skills and working proficiency in English
• Experience in skilled nursing, rehab, or memory care preferred
• Same-day pay options via DailyPay and direct deposit
