$37 - $79 / HOUR
You can earn as much as $79 per hour as a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) in and around South Kingstown, RI, with the ability to choose your own hours and locations. Probably not what you’re used to, right? We get it: You love what you do, but the work-life balance of the nursing profession is often lacking. That’s why our nurse-founded solution is focused on empowering nurses to do their best while giving facilities a better way to manage their staffing needs: A true win-win solution. IntelyCare was founded on the principle that nursing professionals are happier, more-fulfilled, and better able to perform at a high level when they have stability and flexibility. The expectation of working long hours, often in an understaffed environment, is unsustainable and only makes the staffing problem worse. We want to change that, both for the nurses and the facilities in which they work. As a licensed practical nurse, you deserve the security and financial stability that traditional W2 employment offers, but with flexible hours and the freedom to work at multiple locations. With IntelyCare, you’ll have the freedom to relax and recharge along the shoreline at Narrangansett when the weather’s nice, spend time with your kids at Saugatucket Park, or do whatever fulfills you — all while furthering your career as a nursing professional.

Here's what some of our IntelyPros think about their experience with us: "This job has so much more to offer than a decent pay. The flexibility and large choice of facilities to work for is amazing. I am a single mom and I hated missing out on sports events, holidays, and special moments due to regular schedules. IntelyCare has made it possible for me to enjoy my life, kids, and career." "I love the fact that this is a W2 company! Everyone here is very understanding - they will try to help you in every way they can!" "This job feels unreal sometimes! Being able to make your own schedule is great, but working at different facilities and learning new things every day makes it even better. It helps you increase your skill set in a way that being a FT employee somewhere could never do. I truly feel blessed to be part of this team!"
