Certified Nursing Assistant jobs require a high school diploma and nursing assistant training that’s approved by your state’s nursing board. Individuals are also required to pass a CNA certification exam.

These elderly companion jobs provide the same services; they assist patients with meals, transportation, mobility and more. Specialized formal education is not needed, but most elder care jobs will require you to pass a background check, have a current driver’s license and a high school diploma.
- Part-Time Caregiver : These caregivers work on a part-time basis and help with a range of daily tasks, including hygiene, cleaning, meal preparation, shopping and more.
