Agency work?

What can a CNA expect working for a staffing agency?

I am starting nursing school and I need a job that will work around my crazy school schedule and this seems like it might work? I just really don't know what to expect?

What kind of pay, hours, ect...?

They say they staff home health, hospitals, nursing homes, ect...
Hi. I can try to help a little with this question, though I am not totally sure.I work at an agency as an RN, so I'm not sure how the pay is for a CNA, but I'll go with what I do know. With what I have seen agency seems to pay a little higher then nursing homes (at least the agency I work for pays more then the nursing homes around here.)They do send you where ever you are needed. I have gone to nursing homes and hospice right now (mainly because of my experience level); but they do send you out to hospitals, nursing homes, hospice, and other places. Some agencies are with doctor offices, so there is a possibility of being put there too.If you think you can handle work and school- then I would say go for it. Agency is almost always willing to work with your schedule. And it would be one that you can have odd shifts work out.

Thank you, that helps!
