Travel Postions for Cna's

I was wondering if there are travel assignments for cna? I have found sites for rn and lpns, but not cna's. I am looking for 13 week assignments like in washington state, alabama, kentucky, tennessee.. If anyone has any help let me know

I've never seen any and I'd bet there aren't any.

There are quite a few actually. I've been working as a traveling CNA for about 4 yrs now. You just have to search and ask questions. :4:

Are you talking about traveling or agency?- there's a big difference. I have not seen any travel companies that employ CNA's, but have seen tons of nursing agencies that hire CNA's.

I've worked for both over the years. I've never optioned to travel further than 7 hrs from home, because of my family,but I have had the option to go as a CNA to Hawaii, Vermont, Washington, etc. Most of them don't advertise CNA hire... you have to ask.

What companies have you traveled with as a CNA? Do they give you housing and other benefits like the RN/LPN travel companies?

I'm not going to give out the name of the company I work for now. They're fairly small and I'd like to keep my hours.:18:

Though some others would be;

Medical Staffing Network & InteliStaf Travel
Healthcare Staffing Network (I haven't checked them out but I know someone who works for them)
Maxim
and there are others. If a person wants to work travel they just have to be willing to search and do their homework.


The travel company I work for pays a CNA for the same things the RN/LPN's get. It's travel work... just because CNA's are doing the traveling doesn't mean we get any less (other than wage of course).
For instance if I were to go to Hawaii for a 13 week contract I would get;

paid flight to and from
paid housing
paid rental car
per diem weekly
hourly wage for hours worked
maybe a bonus
and benefits that apply


If I work closer to home per diem or contract I get;

mileage or a per diem for every 8 hr shift I work
paid housing & sometimes meals
hourly wage for hours worked
maybe a bonus (it all depends of the facility)

Usually the CNA jobs aren't jumping out at you like the RN/LPN jobs. You have to dig in the site a little bit to find it, or you have to go by word of mouth. :4:

Way to HECA! Standing up for all the CNA's!
I would love to become a traveling CNA, just like you! I will be following up on your leads that you posted, however, is there anything or anyone else we can contact?

thank you so much for that information. it is very difficult to find cna traveling positions. i have been wanting to travel too and the positions that most agency employ are only RN's and LPN. we as CNA's are also an important part of the medical field too.

I am soo glade i found this site! I cant tell you how long i been looking for a cna traveling job. and does anyone know how much and hr they really make? is it worth it? so do ya'll have any names of companys for me to search to see how to get started? PLEASE HELP!:star:

I to have been looking for traveling CNA job's. I have applyied with serveral agnecys and Travel company's and still nothing
I have been a CNA/Med-Tech for 16yrs and want to Travel just like the LN's and RN's.. I also have speciatily traing as well.. cant seem to find anything!

We have an extensive network of facilities throughout the United States, which allows us to place you in the top facilities at the top pay. Our positions allow you provide quality patient care at the facilities that need us most throughout the country.

I am new to this site, and I was just checking out some of the responses about traveling CNA's. I actually have found a couple of companies that do hire traveling CNA's, but right now they are slow. I feel that we are not treated fairly when it comes to pay in this field. Our job is actually harder than the average nurse, and I feel that we need to be accommodated for that. I have to work 2 jobs just to barely get by, and it's barely too. I am ready to make a difference in my life as far as financial status. There is money to be made as a Traveling CNA. We need to stand together and network with each other. I read one of the thread of one young lady that I thought was so selfish. Honey, you can't work all the traveling jobs for CNA's. Please don't be selfish and try and keep it all for yourself by not revealing the company that you work for. You can't keep a good CNA down regardless to whether you share your findings or not, but I just think that is so selfish of yourself knowing how hard it is out here for us as a CNA. I am willing to list my findings for those that are interested in traveling CNA work. I have a couple, but it is slow right now, but here they are and good luck to all.

If there is anyone out there that know of anymore travel agencies for CNA's please let me know, and I will pass it on to someone else who needs this information. Remember, we need to stick together as CNA's. Good Luck! And Blessing!

I would like to thank lukemacvuam for the lead about traveling CNA's. If you have information that would be help for us that is trying to travel doing CNA work, please reply with a list of agencies for us. I would greatly appreciate this. Thanks in Advance.
