I've worked with customers in other jobs, but it just wasn't the same. The rewarding part about working at Hood River Care Center is I know I did something good for someone.

It’s more of a family here to me – we are all close here at Prestige Care.

I’ve been here 8 years and we offer great care here – we have the best team ever! The way Prestige gives care is great. The attention and love we provide is great. It’s special to me working in skilled nursing; I love to help our residents very, very much. They trust me and they are so special to me. Prestige is different in a good way – the leaders and everyone, it’s very family orientated.

Eden, Discovery Nursing & Rehab of Vancouver CNA

I love the environment and my co-workers, our team is great here and I love being a part of it! I love the skilled nursing environment because I’m comfortable here, I get to know my residents long term, and it’s not a stressful environment.

June, CNA, Prestige Pool

I’ve seen care at so many other facilities fall short. I wanted to be part of the solution and I am able to do that here at Prestige Care. I love the impact I get to make. I love being able to work for one company but float to different locations like Enumclaw, Spokane, Portland, Bend, and beyond!

I really like taking care of people and knowing that what I’m doing is making difference especially after working here 20 years. I love making people smile. Knowing that I get good results at my work is rewarding. I like the continuity of being here and I like knowing what is coming next and knowing what to expect. We have great leadership here.

I started here in 2017 – one of my friends worked for Prestige Care and told me how great of a place it was. I had to check it out and I’m glad I did! I absolutely love the work environment. It’s clean, it’s comfortable, and I love the impact I get to make with my residents. I truly have found a home here.

Sahil - CNA - Discovery

Love working here, everyone is so friendly. It’s a great place to be around every day. This is a very fast paced environment like a hospital, but you still have time to get to know your residents and you feel like you are a part of a bigger community.

Sahil, Discovery Nursing & Rehab of Vancouver CNA

I have been a CNA since 2015 and love working here. We have great teamwork here, I get to know my residents, and it’s a very positive work environment. That’s what keeps me coming back every day.

You play a direct role in the care of our residents. Important tasks of a CNA include answering patient call lights, turning or repositioning bedridden residents, documenting in our electronic medical records system and providing physical support to our residents including assistance getting out of bed, bathing, and dressing. CNAs are also responsible for reviewing resident dietary restrictions and preferences, and measuring and recording food and liquid intake.

No. In fact, we offer an in-house CNA training program, which consists of a 5-6 week class that includes the required class time and clinical time. Once you are finished with our program, you can become a CNA with us at one of our skilled nursing care centers. You are required, however, to have a high school diploma or equivalent education.

You will need to get recertified every two years. Recertification will also help keep you updated on new treatments, best patient practices, and licensing changes. Prestige will cover the full cost to get your recertification.

A great place for a CNA to start is at a skilled nursing care center! This is where demand for CNAs is the highest, and it’s where CNAs can have some of the greatest impact on care. This will provide you with the opportunity to improve the quality of life of many residents.

While we have many career-long CNAs, we also have a direct route of becoming an LPN, RN, etc. We will also assist with the cost of tuition and help you live out your health care career goals.
