About Geriatric Nursing Assistant per diem work
Geriatric nursing assistants provide hands-on daily care for older adults under the direction of licensed nurses, most often in long-term care and skilled nursing settings. Typical duties include assisting residents with bathing, dressing, toileting, mobility, and meals, taking and recording vital signs, repositioning to protect skin integrity, supporting residents living with dementia or chronic conditions, and reporting changes in condition to the nursing team.
Per-diem GNA shifts are typically posted by long-term care communities, skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities, and other settings focused on older adults, across days, evenings, nights, and weekends. Because these settings depend on steady, familiar caregivers, GNAs who can pick up shifts reliably are consistently valued, and per-diem work makes it practical to build hours around school, family, or another job.
Credential and licensure expectations vary by state and care setting, and typically include:
- Active Geriatric Nursing Assistant (GNA) certification in good standing on the registry where the shift is located (requirements vary)
- At least 12 months of GNA experience is required (CNA experience does not count)
- BLS/CPR certification is commonly required
- Some settings request additional competencies such as dementia care or safe patient handling training
