Job description

DRIVER WANTED (BUT MAKE IT CNA)

The Lodge at Red Rocks

Let’s get one thing crystal clear before we go any further (and before Indeed sends us 437 non-qualified applicants):

You MUST be a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA).
No exceptions.
If you are not a CNA, this role is not for you.
Yes, we will check.

Still here? Perfect. You might be our unicorn.

The Role: CNA Driver (aka Transportation Legend)

We’re looking for a CNA-certified Driver who can safely transport our residents while also understanding exactly what they need—because you’ve been in the trenches. This isn’t just "driving a van." This is caring, awareness, compassion, and knowing how to pivot when a resident says, "I'm fine" (but you know better).

You’ll be:

• Transporting residents to appointments safely and calmly

• Assisting residents as needed (because CNA experience is essential)

• Communicating with nursing staff like a pro

• Representing The Lodge at Red Rocks with professionalism, kindness, and just the right amount of personality

Why CNA Certification Is NON-NEGOTIABLE

Our residents deserve someone who:

• Understands transfers, mobility, and safety

• Can recognize changes in condition

• Knows resident dignity isn’t optional

• Has CNA instincts, not just a driver’s license

Again, for the people in the back:

PLEASE ONLY APPLY IF YOU ARE A CNA.

Why The Lodge at Red Rocks?

• A genuinely positive, supportive environment

• A team that actually likes working together (wild concept, we know)

• Leadership that has your back

• One of the BEST NHAs in the industry - respected, supportive, and an absolute pro

This is one of those facilities people hope for but rarely find.

Requirements

• Active CNA certification (required, required, required)

• Valid driver’s license and clean driving record

• Experience in a Skilled Nursing Facility preferred

• Compassion, patience, and reliability

• Ability to balance professionalism with warmth

Final Warning (with love)

If you are not a CNA, this is not the role for you.

If you are a CNA and want a unique, meaningful role outside the typical floor grind—this might be your moment.
