Question for CNA's in Bowling Green (home, move to, health)

[sscholl3]

Hello, I am hoping to move to Bowing green in about a year and have my CNA licsense. I have been trying to find out what a CNA makes there and haven't found the answer yet.

I was hoping that someone could tell me what the average pay for a CNA in 1. home health 2. LTC facilities 3. hospitals are.

Thanks!

I think in LTC, they start at about $11.00 per hour.

I worked as one for a while in Central KY. Our pay was $10 for 1st shift and $11.50 for 2nd & 3rd. I pays good but is a pretty thankless job, at least in the long term care sector (even though the residents themselves aren't too bad). I got canned for reporting that a guy didn't receive care for a broken hip for 36 hours after falling.

Thanks ladies....

I make $12/hr for home health and I think that is about the pay that LTC facilities make. I am just making sure that when we transition from Arizona to Kentucky financially we can make it and I will be able to get into something I know.
