Nurse Assistants

Exploring This Job

Many high school students are hired by nursing homes and hospitals for part-time work because a high school diploma is frequently not required of nursing aides. Job opportunities may also exist in a hospital or nursing home kitchen, introducing you to diet and nutrition planning. These jobs will give you an opportunity to become familiar with the hospital and nursing home environments. Also, volunteer work can familiarize you with the work nurses and nurse assistants perform, as well as introduce you to basic medical terminology.
