But first, why per diem nursing?
Why Choose Per Diem Nursing?
Many are drawn to per diem nursing due to:
The term "per diem" translates to "per day,” hence these roles are filled on a short-term basis. This makes per diem nursing assignments ideal for nurses who prefer (or need) more flexibility around when they work and a better work/life balance.
Equally, due to the short-term nature of these roles, the need for them is often urgent. This is often due to staffing shortages. This means facilities are often willing to pay higher hourly wages to attract experienced nurses at short notice. So, you can often earn more per hour in per diem positions than in staff nursing, making per diem agency nursing a highly financially rewarding career path.
What do Per Diem Nursing Agencies do?
To find quality per diem nursing jobs, partnering with the best per diem nursing agency to suit your goals is essential. The best per diem nursing agencies act as a bridge between their per diem nursing candidates and potential employers, making it easier to find the perfect assignments for candidates that match their skills and preferences.
