What’s the difference between Per Diem nursing and Contract Nursing?
Per Diem nursing shifts are booked individually, day to day. Contract shifts are part of a multi-week assignment at a single client; usually the client is looking for the nurse to commit to three 12-hour shifts each week for 13 weeks. Some of our nurses prefer the flexibility that Per Diem nursing offers. With Per Diem nursing, you may work 40 or more hours while retaining complete control over your schedule. This can be especially appealing for those nurses who do not want to work weekends. Other nurses prefer the stability of contract nursing. With contract nursing your schedule is assigned by the client, based on your preferences detailed in the contract, and normally includes some weekend shifts. With FlexRN, you can choose Per Diem nursing or contract nursing. View open nursing jobs on our website.
