24d • $20

About The Position

If you are a Certified Nursing Assistant looking for a role where you can slow down, connect with patients, and provide meaningful care, this is the opportunity you’ve been searching for.

At Morning Star Hospice, our CNAs are trusted caregivers and essential members of the interdisciplinary team. You’ll have the support, schedule stability, and patient focus that many healthcare environments simply cannot offer.

Hospital CNAs, agency CNAs, long-term care CNAs, and home health CNAs are strongly encouraged to apply.

The Hospice Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) provides direct patient care in homes and facility settings, supporting comfort, dignity, and quality of life for individuals receiving hospice services.

This role partners closely with nurses and the hospice interdisciplinary team to deliver compassionate, patient-centered care.

Many CNAs transition into hospice after experiencing burnout in high-ratio environments.
Hospice allows you to:
✔ Care for fewer patients

✔ Focus on comfort instead of constant tasks

It’s the kind of care most clinicians hoped healthcare would be.
