Certified Nursing Assistant - CNA

Certified Nursing Assistant | CNA

Join our residential neuro rehabilitation team as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Direct Support Professional (DSP) and make a meaningful difference helping individuals with neurological injuries build independence and get back to the activities that matter most.

Whether you're looking for a full-time weekend schedule or another full-time opportunity, there's a bonus waiting for you!

Ready for more than the typical CNA role? At Rehab Without Walls, you'll help patients rebuild independence after neurological injuries—in a home-like residential setting, not a hospital. This is a unique CNA opportunity where care is more personal, flexible, and impactful—and duties are lighter than traditional facility roles.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Residential home setting (not hospital or nursing facility)
• Lighter CNA workload + more meaningful patient interaction
• Support patients recovering from brain injuries, strokes, and complex conditions
• Help patients transition from hospital → home → independence
• Be part of a collaborative neurorehabilitation team

What You'll Do

• Assist with daily care + life skills development
• Support cooking, light housekeeping, and transportation
• Participate in community-based activities
