Private Duty RN - Top Pay, Low Patient Ratio (1:1 Care)

$24 - $29 per hour

RNS Private Duty Care

Job Description

Job Description

Part-Time & PRN | $24–$29/hr Base + Premium Post-Op Opportunities ($30–$35/hr)

Looking to Supplement Your Income Without Picking Up Another Hospital Shift?

At RNS Private Duty Care, we’re inviting LPNs and RNs 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.

This is perfect 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 makes you invaluable, but without the chaos of a facility.

And 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.

Why Nurses Choose RNS:

  • 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

What This Role Looks Like:

While you’re licensed as an LPN or RN, most assignments function in a caregiver capacity, including:

  • Providing one-on-one support in the home

  • Assisting with daily living activities

  • Medication reminders or administration (when applicable)

  • Safety oversight and companionship

  • Monitoring condition changes and communicating with the care team

  • Light documentation per RNS standards

For post-op assignments:

  • Comfort support and recovery monitoring

  • Pain management support (non-clinical oversight)

  • Transportation and errands

  • Safety supervision during the first 24–48 hours post-surgery

Qualifications:

  • Current Kansas or Missouri LPN or RN license (in good standing)

  • Valid driver’s license, auto insurance, and reliable transportation

  • Excellent communication and assessment skills

  • CPR certification (or completion within 90 days of hire)

  • TB test (current or within 90 days of hire)

  • Prior home health or private duty experience preferred, but not required
