Looking to Supplement Your Income Without Picking Up Another Hospital Shift? At RNS Private Duty Care, we’re inviting LPNs to join us in a caregiver-style role, providing one-on-one support in the home while earning a higher hourly rate than traditional caregiving.

• Want extra income without burnout
• Prefer calm, one-on-one environments
• Miss actually connecting with patients
• Want occasional high-paying specialty assignments

This is ideal for nurses who:

• Want extra income without burnout
• Prefer calm, one-on-one environments
• Miss actually connecting with patients
• Want occasional high-paying specialty assignments

Most shifts are supportive, 1:1 care where your nursing background is invaluable, but without the chaos of a facility. When available, our White-Glove Post-Op Program offers short-term 24–48 hour cases at $45/hr, supporting cosmetic surgery clients with comfort care, safety oversight, transportation, and recovery monitoring. These specialty assignments are limited but highly rewarding financially and professionally.

• Competitive base pay ($25–$28/hr depending on skill set and availability)
• Flexible scheduling that works around your primary job
• Low-stress, one-on-one client environments
• Premium post-op opportunities ($45/hr when assigned)
• Safe, vetted homes; we only send you where we’d go ourselves
• Ongoing support from experienced nurse leadership
• Locally owned, team-oriented culture that values your license and your time
