CNA jobs in Twin Cities?

by esunada Feb 22, '10 | 3,412 Views | 4 Comments

  1. 0 I'm thinking of getting my CNA while I do the nursing school route. Do you know of any good assisted living facilities or nursing homes that would hire someone with no experience in the twin cities area? I was considering home health care,too but it sounds like it involves more housekeeping and daily errands versus healthcare. Is that true? I would like to be a CNA at a hospital but it sounds like it's impossible to get in without experience.

    Also, do home health and assisted living facilities reimburse CNA classes or is it just nursing homes?

    Thanks!

    Hi, I *think* it is just nursing homes that reimburse.
    I know Guardian Angels in Elk River puts on their own CNA Class & hire you after that.
    Yes, hospitals are hard to get into and usually require experience. Good luck to you!

    I work at White Pine Senior (assisted) Living in Inver Grove Heights. I became a CNA May 2008, then became a stay at home mom until Dec 2009. They hired me with no experience and they also hire people without their CNA & help pay for their schooling to get it.
