If you're an experienced CNA who's tired of feeling rushed, unseen, or stretched too thin; this is your moment to reset. At PeaceHealth Cottage Grove, nighttime care is calmer, more personal, and deeply patient‑focused . You'll have the time, trust, and autonomy to practice the kind of care you were trained to give; without the constant churn of high‑volume units. What's in it for you: Smaller community hospital = real relationships. You'll know your patients by name, not room number. Night shift pace with purpose. Fewer interruptions, more focus, and meaningful one‑on‑one care. Experience matters here. Your judgment is respected, your voice is heard, and your skills are trusted. Mission‑driven, not metric‑driven. Care decisions are rooted in compassion, not quotas. Live where others vacation. End your shift and head straight to forests, trails, lakes, and fresh air. What You'll Do You'll spend your nights doing what matters most, supporting patients directly and compassionately. Provide hands‑on patient care under the guidance of an RN. Help patients bathe, dress, eat, hydrate, and stay comfortable through the night. Take and record vital signs, intake/output, and other key observations. Assist patients with walking, repositioning, and safe movement in and out of bed. Notice changes early and communicate them clearly to the care team. Keep patient rooms clean, stocked, and calm. Document care accurately so nothing important is missed. Pitch in with light clerical tasks when needed to support smooth unit flow. How You'll Know You're Making a Difference This role isn't about volume; it's about outcomes and dignity. You'll see the impact of your work in small but meaningful moments; when a patient rests more easily, feels safer overnight, or thanks you for simply taking the time to listen. Your attentiveness helps prevent complications, supports healing, and ensures patients feel genuinely cared for, even during the quietest hours. At PeaceHealth Cottage Grove, doing the job well matters more than doing it fast .

Your impact looks like:

Patients feel calmer, cleaner, and more secure overnight. Early signs of decline are caught because you had time to notice. Fewer falls and overnight complications due to attentive care. Nurses trust your observations and rely on your experience. Patients and families remember the kindness they received at 2:00 a.m. What We're Looking For (Experience Valued) Oregon‑certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). Basic Life Support (BLS) certification (required upon hire). At least 1 year of CNA experience preferred , ideally in acute care. Confidence working independently while staying connected to the team. Clear communication and a steady, compassionate presence. Comfort in a fast‑paced environment, without losing the human touch. Nice to Have (Not Required) Experience on a medical unit or overnight shift is a plus, but what matters most is your ability to bring calm, consistency, and care when patients need it most . We're committed to schedules that support rest, recovery, and life outside of work.
