Health related jobs are still in BIG demand. It is one career area where there is a lot of currant hiring and it pays good. In my State of Hawaii Certified Nurses Aide (CNA) is a good start if you are looking for health care jobs. The pay is about double minimum wage plus full health and other benefits. There are also ways to take the needed course of training for free.
Instructions
1. Search for different facilities and nursing home or home care in your area. There are some facilities that offer a free CNA course or training to their employees and other interested members in the community. They want to make sure that all their staff are performing the correct procedures in taking care of residents and to avoid malpractices and other issues.
2. After identifying the facilities, call each with an inquiry.
3. If you do not find any facilities offering nursing aide training or certifications in your phone calls, VISIT the Human Resources office of the facility of your choice and talk to the staff and inquire for any possibilities of work in that facility, like housekeeping, maintenance, care assistant and other health related jobs that may not required State Approved training. Take note: do not expect to be hired right away but it is the best step of showing your interest to work in their facility. You will probably be asked to submit your resume, so prepare it and bring it with you.
4. Accept any job for a start. Working as a care assistant will give you more experience in taking care of the resident's needs except for feeding and transferring and actual touch. It will give you a chance to know each resident well and will give you more confidence when you start working as a CNA.
