Description
Wellspring Skilled Nursing & Rehab Fairview | Full-time | Hourly | $14.00 - $17.00
Applications accepted through August 24, 2026
Have you ever thought about a career in healthcare, but weren't sure where to begin?
Maybe you've always been the person who checks in on others. The one who notices when someone needs help. The one who finds purpose in making someone's day a little easier, a little brighter, or a little less lonely. The truth is, many great caregivers didn't start with certifications or clinical experience. They started with compassion.
Wellspring Skilled Nursing & Rehab in Fairview is hiring a Resident Assistant to participate in our paid CNA Training Program. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals interested in becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), building caregiving experience and starting a long-term career in healthcare.
As a Resident Assistant, you'll support older adults in a skilled nursing and rehabilitation setting while completing a two-week CNA training course paid for by Wellspring. After successfully completing the class and passing the Michigan CNA licensing exam, you'll transition into a full-time CNA position with increased pay and ongoing career growth opportunities.
Healthcare is about more than medical care. It's about helping people feel valued, respected, and connected. Every day, you'll play a role in creating a positive experience for residents by offering companionship, support, encouragement, and assistance with daily needs. The relationships you build can make a lasting difference in someone's quality of life.
Whether you're exploring careers in nursing, caregiving, rehabilitation, or senior care, this role offers a meaningful pathway into the healthcare field while allowing you to positively impact the lives of others.
Nestled in Northern Michigan, Fairview offers a unique opportunity to build a healthcare career while enjoying the natural beauty of the region. From lakes, rivers, trails, and forests to year-round outdoor recreation, Northern Michigan provides an exceptional quality of life and a strong sense of community.
If you're looking for a career where you can do meaningful work and enjoy everything Northern Michigan has to offer, we'd love to meet you.
