BedsideBoss is the complete training and business playbook for private duty CNAs. Skip the agency, set your own rates, and care for clients one-on-one — in their home, on your schedule.
Whether you're brand new to caregiving or a seasoned CNA tired of agency rates, we have a track built for you.
Start from zero. We walk you through becoming a certified nursing assistant, then transition straight into private duty work.
Already certified? Skip the basics and learn the business side — how to leave the agency, set rates, and protect yourself legally.
Each module mixes short video lessons, downloadable templates, and a checklist you actually complete before moving on.
What private duty CNAs actually do, who hires them, and how it differs from agency work.
ADLs, vitals, transfers, mobility, dementia care, medication reminders, and end-of-life basics.
What you can and cannot do as a CNA in a private home, by state. Includes a 50-state reference.
Sole prop vs LLC, EIN, business banking, insurance, and a simple bookkeeping system.
Where private clients actually come from, how to vet families, and the consultation script we use.
Sample contracts, rate calculator, invoicing templates, and how to handle private pay vs LTC insurance.
One of the most common — and most injury-prone — tasks in private duty. In this lesson you'll learn the gait belt technique, body mechanics that protect your back, and what to do when the client can only bear partial weight.
Watch the lesson“I left the agency after 9 years. Within 6 weeks I had four private clients and was earning double what I made before.”
“I had zero healthcare background. The clinical videos and the contract templates got me up and running in three months.”
No. Track A walks you through getting certified in your state. If you're already certified, jump straight into Track B for the business side.
Yes — in all 50 states, certified nursing assistants can be hired directly by a client or family for non-medical and CNA-scope care. Module 3 covers the scope rules state by state.
Most private duty CNAs charge $25–$45 per hour depending on location, shift type, and acuity. We include a rate calculator inside the program.
Self-paced. Most students finish the full curriculum in 4–8 weeks of part-time study and land their first client within 12 weeks.
Join hundreds of caregivers building careers they actually love — on their schedule, with the clients they choose.
