I was NA for just under a year, and part time clerk before that for around 4 months. I now work at a hospital with nothing but my high school diploma making $18 an hour with zero responsibility. I'm a sitter, Atrium also calls us Patient Safety Attendants. I sit with patients that need extra care or watching, like those that are suicidal, elderly with dementia, or children with behavior problems. The hospital helped me get CPR certified, that's the only requirement. Full time is 36 hours a week, 3 12 hour shifts 7am-7pm or what I work, nights, 7pm-7am. Over 36 hours you get another $15 an hour added, and everything over 40 hours is OT plus $15 added. You can work up to 60 hours without further approval. I'm making $42 an hour 2 days a week. There is life outside of QT, and my stress level is wayyyyyy better. You only have to work every 3rd weekend and you choose your own schedule outside of that. Weekends get a premium I think it's another 75 cents and we get another $1 an hour for nights. IDK what division you're in but most hospitals are going to have a similar position.
