Per Diem Nursing

Per diem (a.k.a. "PRN") nursing offers the flexibility to pick up shifts as needed at local facilities while earning a higher hourly rate than regular staff. Additionally, per diem nurses can choose when and where they want to work, gain experience in different settings, and enjoy the challenges and rewards of on-call opportunities.

What happens when I mark myself as “available”?

When our team sees you have marked a shift as available, they will give you a call at confirmation time if you are needed for the shift. Consequently, be prepared for the call and ready to work the shift. If you are not 100% certain of availability for a shift, do not mark yourself as available.


What do I need with me for each shift?

By the time you show for your shift, be sure to bring your RN license, credentials, and a photo ID. The staffing office may need to make their own copies on your first shift.


Where do I go for my shift?

When picking up shifts at different facilities, always head to the Nurse Staffing Office to sign in with the supervisor to receive your assignment.


How can I cancel a shift?

You can remove your availability from your schedule any time before the two-hour confirmation window. Nevertheless, we highly recommend calling as in advance as possible to give facilities enough time to plan replacements.


What does "pro re nata" mean?

PRN stands for "pro re nata," which is Latin for "as needed." It is often used interchangeably with Per Diem, which means "by the day."

Both PRN and Per Diem are used to describe staffing opportunities where nurses or clinicians can schedule shifts at a facility without needing to sign a contract.
