Best Floor To Work On As A Cna

In your opinion whats the best floor to work on.

Best floor to work on as a cna.

What do u think. It could be med surg peds pacu or icu er anything. The kicker my contract states i must stay on the floor i choose for a minimum of one year. So my question is i have been offered a job on several floors but i am not sure which would be best.

Since you are a new nursing assistant the best floor in a hospital to work on will be any floor you can get hired on. Most hospitals hire cnas to work general medical surgical floors. Experienced nurses may also consider working for health care agencies opening the door to opportunities to work on different floors every week. Hospitals don t like to hire new pca s with no experience.

I have been offered a position as a cna with pct training to follow phlebotomy foley cath ekg accu check etc. The best floor is the floor that interests you. Find an area of nursing that you will enjoy that will make you smile going into work then that will be the best floor. There are lots of pct jobs open at the hospital and im not sure which floor to apply for once im done with my cna training.

They are also responsible for a number of other tasks such as cleaning rooms distributing meals and maintaining patients records. But figuring out which floor to work on as a recent graduate can be trying. I really doubt you will have your selection of floors to work on you re going to want to apply to any and all open positions. To work in specialty areas like all 5 of the areas you listed above my hospital would require a pct class aua certification and at least 1 year of experience.

My hosptial will hire cnas to work med surg with no experience and just a cna certification. Cnas often work in patients homes assisting patients with mobility and performing personal care tasks that they cannot do for themselves. Meanwhile nurses working positions in units may want a change and feel uncertain about which specialty is right for them. The job requires travel to the patient s residence where you will not only assist patients with bathing dressing toileting and moving from one place to another but also preparing simple meals and.

Then it will also need adequate staffing and fair management.
