Travel nursing compliance & licensure.
Being a travel CNA is a great way to grow your experience and learn on the job. What if your dream travel assignment is asking for certifications you don’t have? Don’t sweat. You’ll get training in nursing and financial assistance for the cost of licensing and certifications!
Degrees and Certifications
Keeping up with the world of licensing and certification can be intimidating. Degrees and certifications depend on your modality and specialty but getting compliant for your home state and others you want to travel to is easier as a medical professional. Compliance experts work with your recruiter and the facility to ensure that you have all the relevant credentials required for any and all travel CNA jobs.
Compliance Requirements
Some of your compliance requirements are the same across the board, but there are others that will depend on your specialty in nursing.
The three parts of compliance
- Occupational health records: Required immunizations and health examinations
- Documentation: Tax forms, insurance paperwork, and licenses
- Testing: Certifications, online training, and workplace safety exams
How do I become a travel CNA?
You will need a high school diploma to enroll in a certified nursing assistant program. These programs can be found at community colleges, trade schools, and even some hospitals or nursing homes. The curriculum includes classroom learning and clinical experience, covering areas like anatomy, physiology, and patient care principles. As part of the training program, you'll need to complete a certain number of clinical hours under the supervision of a registered nurse. This hands-on experience is crucial for developing practical nursing skills.
After completing the training, you'll need to pass a state certification exam. The exam typically involves both a written test and a practical skills test. It is recommended that certified nursing assistants have 12-18 months of experience before applying for travel assignments.
What is the average salary for travel CNA jobs?
The salary of a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) varies depending on factors such as location, experience, and specialty. As of 2021, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the median annual wage for CNAs in the United States is approximately $30,720. However, CNAs working in government or hospital settings can expect to earn a higher wage, with the top 10% earning more than $42,860 a year.
Are there any common certifications I should consider?
Yes! Travel certified nursing assistants must maintain certifications such as Basic Life Support (BLS) and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR).
Many states require travel CNAs to complete a certain amount of continuing education units in order to renew their CNA certification and for career advancement. These ongoing education requirements ensure CNAs stay updated with the latest practices and trends in healthcare.
Will taking travel CNA jobs help my nursing career?
Taking travel CNA jobs is beneficial because it exposes you to different regional nursing procedures and patient populations, provides the opportunity to explore new specialties, and helps you gain experience learning a new clinical environment quickly.
