Certified nursing assistants (CNAs) are crucial members of any healthcare team in both acute and post-acute settings. Under the supervision of a registered nurse (RN) or a licensed practical nurse (LPN), nursing assistants are responsible for hands-on care of patients including helping with daily living activities, checking vital signs, and in some cases, administering the medications that are important to the health and recovery of their patients.

CNA jobs can be physically as well as emotionally demanding, but also incredibly rewarding for those who want direct interaction with patients. You can find many certified nursing assistant jobs in locations across the country, and in many settings, on the Credenza job board. Check out the latest full-time, part-time, contract, temporary, and per diem CNA positions today — there are even traveling CNA opportunities.

Note that these trained professionals go by different names in different states:

State Registered Nursing Assistant (SRNA): Kentucky

CNA Education and Skills

To become a CNA, you’ll start by earning a high school degree or GED. Each state has different requirements, but in general the next step is completing a nurse assistant training program that is approved by your state nursing board. These programs are available from community colleges, hospitals, or even online. The final step is to pass the CNA certification exam. Each state’s test is a bit different, but it can include demonstrations of skills learned, plus written and sometimes oral sections. You will need to hold basic life support (BLS) certification for most nursing assistant positions.

If you want to advance your CNA career, consider becoming a:

Or you can continue your education to go from a CNA to a registered nurse. During all your education, remember that you’ll also want to learn the soft skills that will best help your patients. In many CNA job descriptions, employers often like the job candidates to be team players, have good attention to detail, be patient and compassionate, and be able to communicate clearly with patients, other caregivers, and the patient’s family.

Resume and Cover Letter for a CNA Job

Even if you are an experienced nursing professional, you’ll want to make sure your CNA resume and cover letter are up to date and can display your skills and experience to their best advantage. Make sure your resume reflects the skills listed in the job posting. This helps show the hiring manager that you’ve got what they’re looking for. In your cover letter, demonstrate your passion for the role and why you’re interested in a CNA job with that particular facility.

Interviewing for Certified Nursing Assistant Jobs

Just like other professions, interviews for CNA jobs can make you a little nervous. But taking some time to go over common CNA interview questions and answers can help you feel more prepared. Remember to research the company, share your enthusiasm for patient care, and just be your honest self.

Salary and Benefits for CNA Positions

The average annual CNA salary is $42,700. But CNA jobs' salary expectations can be impacted by a variety of factors, including education, experience, facility type, and employer. The highest-paying CNA jobs are more likely to be held by professionals who have years of experience in their roles. Location also influences your paycheck — not only according to the population of the state in which you work, but also by the need for nursing professionals in that state. Some of the states that pay the most on average to CNAs include:

In addition to salary, don’t forget to investigate what benefits and perks are available to you. Many employers will offer a wide range including health, dental, and vision insurance, retirement accounts, bonuses, discount programs, paid time off, and even free company merch.
