Schedule: Full-Time, hourly position, 7pm-7am. Ability to work any night including some weekends (3-4 nights/week). Schedule is made for 6 weeks at a time, so there is advanced notice.

This position carries out duties assigned by the RN in order to increase the level of patient comfort, maintain good personal hygiene and maintain a safe environment for the patient/family/caregiver.

Here are the essential duties day to day:

• Take vitals once a day per patient
• Patient Hygiene (bathe, mouthcare, keep patient dry, and more)
• Reposition patients every 4 hours, or based on family's request
• Help with passing out trays for meals
• Recording intake and output
• Empty trash cans and restock patient rooms with supplies
• Documenting everything you have done
• Reports changes in patient’s condition, concerns about patient and/or family to appropriate nursing staff in a timely fashion.
• Participates in interdisciplinary team conferences, shift report, staff training, agency and departmental meetings and other related activities.
• Up to 4-6 patients a day per CNA in an 18-bed unit

Here is what our employees have to say!

• We are a very close knit group, more like family!
• We are allowed to do more one-on-one care with patient and family than at hospitals or nursing homes. We are able to do things the way they should be done.
• We have time to sit and talk to the patient and families, help them go through whatever they are going through, and give them the respect and care they deserve.
• We have the ability to be with people in their last hours/days, be a constant for them, and show them that we care about them - some patients may not have family.

Though it is very rewarding work, it also comes with challenges:

In hospice care, you are dealing with grief. It is important to find ways to not take the heaviness of it all home with you. Many of our employees find that what helps them on those hard days is to find joy in the fact that they were able to be there to comfort that patient, help them feel cared for, and make a difference in the time they had with them.

Are you a good fit for this role? Here are some things we find very valuable..

• Team player
• Dedication
• Patient-dignity minded
• Every patient is OURS - mentality, not just yours or another CNA's
• Exceptional bath-giving skills
• Ability to handle heavy-lifting (minimum lifting requirement 40lbs)
• Ability to maintain composure in any situation (ex: dealing with bodily fluids, grieving family, etc.)
