What is per diem nursing?

Per diem (PRN) work allows nurses to pick up shifts on an as-needed basis, sometimes across multiple healthcare facilities, without committing to full-time employment. Per diem work offers high pay, flexibility, and the option to choose where you work. Working per diem with Favorite Healthcare Staffing offers a range of benefits for nurses. Favorite is the ideal choice for nurses who want extra hours or occasional shifts, without committing to a full-time staff nursing position. Read more about per diem nursing on our blog.

Earn high pay with per diem shifts

Per diem nursing is an appealing work option, as it offers the opportunity to earn higher pay than many part-time or full-time staff nursing jobs. PRN nursing is mutually beneficial for both the nurse and the healthcare facility. The nurse can pick up per diem shifts at higher pay rates and the facility benefits by being able to provide adequate patient coverage.

Per diem not only offers competitive pay rates, but it also allows for a flexible work schedule. When nurses get to choose their schedules, they have an easier time maintaining a good work-life balance.
