Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA)

Job Description: Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) | Providing Comfort, Dignity & Compassionate Care Wellspring Skilled Nursing & Rehab – Fairview | Full-time | Hourly $20.40 - 22.00 You chose healthcare because you wanted to help people. Not through grand gestures, but through the everyday moments that matter most. Helping someone start their morning with confidence. Offering reassurance during a difficult day. Sharing a conversation that brightens someone's mood. Being there when a resident needs a helping hand, a kind word, or simply someone who cares. At Wellspring, those moments happen every day. Residents rely on Certified Nursing Assistants for much more than physical assistance. They depend on the relationships you build, the compassion you show, and the dignity you help preserve in every interaction. At Wellspring, we're looking for Certified Nursing Assistants who are passionate about supporting residents and helping them experience the highest possible quality of life. As a CNA, you'll be one of the caregivers who knows residents best. You'll spend your days helping individuals maintain their independence, comfort, and well-being while developing meaningful relationships with residents and their families. Most importantly, you'll help make every day a little safer, more comfortable, and more meaningful for the people we serve. What Your Impact Will Look Like You'll provide hands-on support with daily activities while helping residents maintain as much independence as possible. You'll assist with personal care, mobility, meals, and daily routines while ensuring every resident is treated with dignity, respect, and compassion. You'll become a familiar and trusted presence in residents' lives, building relationships that help them feel seen, valued, and supported. You'll observe changes in condition, communicate important information to the nursing team, and help ensure residents receive timely care and attention. You'll assist residents in participating in activities, appointments, meals, worship opportunities, and social events that contribute to a fulfilling daily experience. You'll work alongside nurses, therapists, and other members of the care team to support each resident's individualized plan of care. Some days you'll help a resident regain confidence after an illness. Other days you'll offer encouragement during therapy, celebrate a birthday, listen to a life story, or simply brighten someone's day with your presence. Every day, your care has a direct impact on a resident's comfort, confidence, and quality of life. Why This Role Matters For many residents, CNAs are the people they interact with most often. You're often the first friendly face they see in the morning and one of the last people they see before the day ends. The care you provide helps residents feel safe, respected, and supported throughout their day. In skilled nursing, exceptional care isn't only about meeting physical needs. It's about preserving dignity, promoting independence, fostering meaningful connections, and ensuring every resident feels valued. As a CNA, you help make all of that possible.
