The hours a CNA works

Nursing Students CNA/MA

Published

I am currently a nursing student and I would like to work as a CNA as I work towards my degree. My question is my nursing classes are scheduled that I don't get out of class until 3:30 pm, would I still be able to work a second shift somewhere that they would help to work around my school hours or do CNA's strictly work first, second, or third shifts?

My facility also has short shifts from 7-11am and 4-8pm in addition to the standard first, second, and NOC. You might be able to find a facility or home care agency that can work around your schedule for school.
