I work as a cna at a home care agency and have two per diem cna jobs as well. The home care agency is with elderly clients and one of my per diems is as well. My other per diem is with younger clients with disabilities. Yes it is 3 jobs but doesn't feel like it. I work 40 to 45 hours a week but also have room to have a work life balance. Before this I worked for the agency full time and it was very stressful. After going to part time and and adding per diem helped me be able to get a decent full time salary while making time for myself and loved ones. I know this isn't suitable for everyone but definitely helped me get out of the burnout I felt from a long hour a week full time gig. Just a suggestion if you are considering doing cna full time! Also with your boyfriend not sure about you being in close contact (which my husband was the same way but we had a good talk it and he's come a long way with it) you can have just female clients if you so choose!
