Why On With Life?

So, if you have a current CNA certificate, and are passionate about providing encouragement, teaching independent living skills and having FUN while doing it, this role is for you!

A Typical Day:

As a CNA at On With Life, you become part of the journey each person served takes, making memories with them along the way. We are a unique non-traditional long term care program that cares for a variety of ages specializing in brain injury, spinal cord, and neurological conditions. Under licensed nurse supervision and in partnership with other members of the transdisciplinary rehabilitation team, CNAs play a key role in helping our persons served maintain the highest quality of life by providing direct and personalized care, including:

• activities of daily living, including meals, socializing and activities

• range of motion exercises as ordered by therapists

• transfers with and without use of various lifts, as indicated

• identifying and reporting vital information and findings to designated nursing staff

• implementing and performing various levels of cares and safety checks

You First. We Insist.

As a designated Top Workplace for over a decade, we understand the importance of work/life balance! This CNA position is a temporary hire for up to 4-months starting as early as 5/1/24, and due to its temporary nature, the starting wage is $30/hour for minimal experience.

This position is available for our 6a-6:30p and 6p-6:30a shifts, approximately 36 hours per week. Each full-time temporary schedule requires a holiday rotation (with special holiday pay) and an every 3rd weekend rotation. As part of completing the application, you will be asked to specify the hours and shift you are interested in. IMPORTANT: Please note that our orientation process (typically the first 3-4 weeks for temporary positions) may require working days or shifts outside of what will be your typical schedule for the rest of your employment.

If available, permanent positions at our normal wage scale may be offered to exceptional CNAs following successful completion of this temporary position.
