Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Job Description
Hi, we currently have ON CALL/Part time and 1 Full time position available! CNA's and Caregivers are welcome to apply!๐. I currently have openings on dayshift (7am-3pm) and swing shift (3pm-11pm) on the weekends. I also have 3 openings on night shift which is 11pm-7am Thursdays-Saturdays and Tuesdays 3-11pm and 7pm-11pm. We are an assisted living home based out in North Pole. Our on call program is for individuals who already work other jobs or may be looking to earn some revenue. The on call program IS NOT MANDATORY to come in when there are shift availabilities (on call shifts available are for dayshift 7-3pm, swing shift 3-11pm and night shift 11pm-7am). Shift hours range from 4, 6, or 8 hour shifts (depending on preference). One of the improvements we have at Eagles Wings is that we have meals delivered for the residents at the assisted living home. Trying to do caregiving and cooking at the same time can be stressful. Thankfully we are able to have meals delivered to the home at this time from a chef. At Eagles Wings we also try hard to keep the needs of the residents low so that we have time to care for their holistic cares. One of our goals is to establish an environment where we can meet residents holistic (physical, psychological, spiritual and social) needs in a relaxed and peaceful environment. Taking residents for a walk, playing cards, doing a puzzle or reading a news paper is encouraged for relational care. Join the team and experience making a positive impact in the lives of the residents at Eagles Wings. Applications are in the entryway at Eagles Wings 2 at 2793 Perimeter Drive North Pole AK 99705. You can also call Tim @ 385-3088 if interested.
BENEFITS: We offer paid time off/sick leave for employees /retirement benefits and on the job training.
We also have a family nurse practitioner that works with the home that provides med administration classes as needed for employees paid by the business.
