Hours are not guaranteed and are based on the staffing needs of assigned homes and locations. Enjoy flexible scheduling with part-time, full-time, and as-needed opportunities. Float Nurses provide coverage across multiple group homes, with travel expenses reimbursed as applicable. Unlike a hospital or skilled nursing facility where nurses may care for a large number of patients during a shift, our nurses support individuals in community-based group homes with smaller caseloads—typically up to six residents per home . This allows nurses to provide more personalized, relationship-centered care, become familiar with each individual's unique needs, and work in a calmer, home-like environment. As a Float Nurse, you will collaborate with Direct Support Professionals and interdisciplinary team members to assess residents, coordinate care, oversee medication management, and help individuals maintain their health while living as independently as possible in their community. The role offers variety, autonomy, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact without the fast-paced demands often associated with hospital or SNF settings. Position Requirements Graduate of an accredited licensed nursing program. Current unrestricted nursing license. Minimum of one year of nursing experience. Ability to communicate effectively with interdisciplinary team members, the people supported, and their families.
