Join us at Cleveland Clinic Akron General Hospital where we have been providing world-class care to our community for over 100 years. Here, we strive for patient-centered care and comfort with our collaborative team of healthcare professionals. We are committed to serving the community and treating our patients as family.

Akron General’s 3100 Unit is a 16-bed cardiac telemetry and med/surg unit. This fast-paced unit cares for patients who require extensive ADL assistance, high-risk fall patients and patients with pneumonia, FTT, weakness, confusion, sepsis, PEG care, central lines, multiple antibiotic therapies, blood transfusions, IV push/cardiac drip titration medications and tracheostomies. Many of these patients are transfers out of the MICU/SICU and, occasionally, neuro overflow patients. This unit has a strong focus on IV push, limited cardiac drips and chest pain testing/monitoring.

As a Patient Care Nursing Assistant (PCNA) on this team, you will perform various tasks, ensuring patients receive frequent attention and feel comfortable, supported and safe throughout treatment. This is a hands-on role that requires a present, attentive and empathetic caregiver who is willing to learn new medical technologies and support patients through some of their most vulnerable moments.

  • Perform treatment procedures, such as venous blood draws, enemas, application of ice and heat packs, non-sterile compresses, skin preps, setting up oxygen equipment, bed scale weights, setting up overhead trapeze and Buck’s traction and removing urinary foley catheters.
  • Prepare patients for meals, assist in feeding patient if necessary and distribute water and other nourishments according to patient needs in compliance with physician orders.
  • Assist with pre-operative and post-operative care, such as turning and positioning patients with proper body mechanics, applying/utilizing special equipment and ambulating the patient as directed in a safe, prescribed manner.
  • Assist and accompany patients during admission, transfer and discharge.
  • Perform hourly safety rounds, anticipate patient needs and respond to patient call lights promptly.
  • Collect, properly label and transport specimens to proper area.
  • Assist in keeping patient rooms in order, reporting equipment that is out of order, cleaning equipment (as assigned) and mandatory inventory and distributing unit linen and supplies.
  • Document patient care in the electronic medical record.
  • Complete ongoing competency requirements, education programs and mandatory training to maintain certification and/or licensure.

Minimum qualifications for the ideal future caregiver include:

  • High School Diploma or GED
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) Certification through the American Heart Association (AHA) or American Red Cross upon hire or within new hire period

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
