Per Diem Nursing Jobs Overview

If you’re tired of working with limited freedom and flexibility, consider per diem nursing jobs. New technology makes this a more viable — not to mention attractive — option than ever for nursing professionals. Find your next per diem nurse jobs on IntelyCare today.

Choose to Work When You Want

One of the great benefits of working in per diem nurse jobs is how much control you have over your schedule. If a shift conflicts with other things in your life, you have the option to decline it. Let’s say you have a family to care for or you’re currently in school — you don’t have to bend over backwards to accommodate a shift that’s been assigned to you, since you’re not contractually obliged to fill it.

Choose to Work Where You Want

In addition to control, per diem nursing shifts offer variety. Nursing professionals can often feel like their careers are stuck in place when working full time at the same facility doing the same tasks with the same people — plus there are likely few opportunities for professional advancement. Working per diem allows you to explore new facilities, gives you the opportunity to float, and adds new experiences to your nursing resume and cover letter. Plus, you can take the various experiences you have and use them to craft compelling answers to nursing interview questions.

Enjoy a Higher Income Potential

In a full-time job or part-time job, there tends to be few opportunities for an increase in pay. But as a per diem nurse, salary ranges are often better than the national or regional median. For example, the median hourly pay for an RN is $37.30; the median hourly pay for an LPN/LVN is $23.10; and the median hourly pay for a nursing assistant is $14.55. But check out a few per diem job ads on IntelyCare, and you’ll notice that you might just earn more — sometimes quite a lot more — than the national median.

Benefit From Improvements in Per Diem Job Security

New technology can offer you a per diem nursing job that has the benefits and support of a full-time nursing gig. One of the usual drawbacks of per diem work is lack of stability. Traditionally, you have to sacrifice a steady paycheck to take advantage of the freedom and opportunities that a per diem nurse job provides. If you’re living in an area with few skilled nursing facilities, there’s less of a guarantee that there will be a shift available when you want to work.

It’s easy to see how this can be a big risk for many nursing pros. However, advances in technology mean that scheduling apps can curate shifts for you to choose from based on your location and desired pay. You’ll be informed of what shift opportunities are out there, decreasing the day-to-day risk of not knowing when a shift will open up.
