Medication Aide

$27 - $57 / HOUR
You can earn as much as $57 per hour as a Medication Aide in and around Wakefield, 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.
