Should I do EMT or CNA?

Should I do EMT or CNA?

I'm already licensed an EMT-B, but due to health issues in the last two years I didn't actually work in it. Health issues are since resolved/stable, and I'm up for recertification. I also need to get my ambulance certification. I'll be doing all this in the next two months.

I'm going to be taking about 14 weeks of coursework for phlebotomy and lab tech. I'm a science geek, and I'd LOVE to do this, but it takes six months to a year post-graduation to get licensed, and I need a job in the meantime... and I NEED to leave my present job. I'd like to not stay at my job another shift if I could help it, let alone 6 months to a year.

I could get work with my EMT license, but I'm getting the CNA as a "backup" because of the economy and all - worried about being able to find a job - i am a 24-hour caregiver, I'm burned out, I hate it, and I want to do a job where I actually eat breakfast in my own home before going to work.

Is it easier to get work as a CNA than as an EMT? That's my question. Is CNA a good backup? Should I bother?
