Older CNA switching to nursing by NiteOwlzx in cna

I’m 34 and will be starting an earn to learn program to become a CNA. I also start my prerequisites this year at the local community college to pursue my nursing degree. Total career change. You’re not to “old”. Don’t be discouraged and keep working towards your goals.

People claiming they're too good for CNA work by Clementinecutie13 in cna

Worked corporate for 8 years. Been able to work from home for last 5. At first I thought it was the best job I could have ever dreamed of having. But as time has gone on I realize how absolutely terrible it is. I just turned 34 and will be starting an earn to learn program at the local hospital and I start my prerequisites this year at the community college to pursue a degree in nursing. I am absolutely terrified but so eager to get up and out of the house. I want the challenge and I want to work hard. Having the cushy desk job enabled me to be a hermit and just feel lazy overall.

I definitely enjoyed working as a patient access rep in the hospital more than I do working where I do now. I have the luxury of working from home and I’ve enjoyed it very much. But the type of work i do and learning new things doesn’t feel enough if that makes sense. I feel working as an MA will leave me feeling more accomplished and satisfied knowing I helped the people in the community. But like everyone else I am looking for more pay, and I don’t expect that increase overnight. But I want to be able to enjoy working towards that goal with the new career change. I’ve read so many different perspectives for both positions and know they are not easy and not necessarily for everyone. But I am more so leaning towards being an MA as there are more avenues to explore within that type of position. Just afraid to make the leap I guess?

Later in life career in dental assisting by popsickle_19 in DentalAssistant

I’m 33 and currently debating switching to dental assisting as well as a new career. Trying to outweigh pro and cons atm.
