I got the hospice job!

Published

Specializes in hospice.

After two weeks and three interviews, I was offered a job on Friday evening! I am so excited. I am very hopeful as I believe from everything I have experienced so far that the culture at my future employer is vastly different from the one at my current employer, and I think I will be much happier there.

Getting through the challenge of mostly day shift orientation will, I think, turn out to be worth it in the end. (I work night shift because it's just so much easier with my family obligations.) I am hoping I have found my long-term home! :-)

I go in Tuesday to finalize my job offer, and will hand in my two weeks that same day. Now I just have to discipline myself and focus on giving good care, even though I am SO emotionally checked out of this place! But I need to be a good CNA, no matter where I work..... I'd be lying though if I said I wasn't happy I have only a couple weeks left here.

Even in this economy, there are other jobs out there.... don't be afraid to look and try to improve your lot, CNAs!

Hi, I saw that you are a hospice CNA and wanted to ask you what was your hiring start pay? Any differential/overnight shifts? What is a typical day as a hospice CNA?

I am a CNA with five years psychiatric experience and looking to make extra money to help pay for school. Thanks

Here in jersey isn't easy to get a job as hospice aide without experienced as chha or cna experienced . So so bad . Neither hospitals will hire a cna when they only hire chha. You must have a chha training . I strongly feel getting my CHHA certification beside my CNA:arghh:
