Need Ideas for Summer Jobs

I am a nursing student in Texas. I will have completed my first year of nursing in May 2018. I will have completed Level 2 of my nursing school. I am looking for a job for the summer. I am seeing very little in terms of nurse externships/internships. I heard somewhere that I could work as a CMA, is this true? Would I need to take any additional classes for this? What about certification?

It seems like it depends on your state, honestly. I've heard of some schools sending certain information to the BON so people could receive a CNA cert after the first semester/year. Other people have stated that they would have to take a CNA class to become a CNA.

But it seems like either way, you can also apply to hospitals to be a patient care tech or other such titles that do not require a certification, and these are generally taken up by nursing students.
