Graduate Opportunities
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median CNA in Texas is $29,420 a year and is rising because CNAs are in such high demand.
The highest-earning CNA’s are earning as much as $37,710 a year.
As the baby-boom population ages, nursing assistants and orderlies will be needed to help care for an increasing number of older people who have chronic or progressive diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes.
Demand for nursing assistants may be constrained by financial pressures on nursing homes, which might lead some facilities to close or reduce staff. However, increased opportunities are expected in home- and community-based settings as patient preferences and shifts in federal and state funding generate demand for care in these settings.
