There are many opportunities for CNA, volunteer firefighters who have medical training, lifeguard who also get some medical training, EMT basic which is also good training. Everyone is hiring and many will pay for your training. Leah

Hi,

The best advice is to attend college job fairs or local job fairs within your community. These events are a great place to meet employers in all industry areas looking for employees and interns.

Davina’s Answer

Try checking in with local physical therapy clinics. You might be able to get on as a receptionist and can make some valuable connections.

Nursing homes, assisted living facilities, etc.
The nice thing about working as a CNA is that you can "work as you go" . You'll have a way to support yourself as you further your healthcare studies.

Jennifer’s Answer

Don't hesitate to contact the Red Cross and explore the healthcare-related training options they might offer. Your local church, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities could also provide valuable opportunities. Even your neighborhood library might have community programs that could help you establish connections. Also, many hospitals offer PRN positions perfect for students like you, which could also serve as a gateway into their organization. So, keep exploring and seize every opportunity that comes your way!
