Working as a CNA in Shreveport
CNA shifts in Shreveport run across the nursing homes and long-term care communities of northwest Louisiana, from Shreveport proper out toward Bossier City. The work is hands-on floor care: ADLs, vitals, transfers, feeding assistance, and documentation on a hall with a charge nurse.
This is one of Switch’s deepest markets for CNA work — shifts post consistently rather than occasionally, which matters if you’re trying to build a predictable week out of per diem rather than filling an odd gap. Nights and weekends carry premium rates and are the easiest shifts to pick up.
You’ll need to be active and in good standing on the Louisiana Certified Nurse Aide Registry. Louisiana does not extend nurse aide reciprocity automatically, so if you’re certified elsewhere, get on the Louisiana registry by endorsement before claiming shifts.
