We are looking for a compassionate and skilled Registered Nurse (RN) in the Nashville, TN area to administer patient care in accordance with a physician established care plan.
This role is a 1099 contract opportunity, with care being provided at the patients residence. Patient needs are 6 hours weekly, but range from weekly hours to 24-hour care. This allows for multiple scheduling options, from short visits on a weekly basis to full 6 hour shifts or a blend of both. Patients range from high acuity to those who only need basic medical management.
Once our patients are accepted into the program, there is no expiration for this benefit, which allows our team of caregivers to build lasting relationships with their patients for years to come.
Youll get to advocate for the patients and work one-on-one to provide them with the care that they need.
This role will collaborate with CNAs, HHAs, Case Managers, and the patients physicians.
Offers are contingent upon passing a background check.
