Since 2012, Giving Home Health Care has been supporting individuals impacted by health conditions related to their work in nuclear facilities for the Department of Energy. With a focus on personalized, in-home care, we are committed to assisting those who have dedicated their careers to these vital roles. As a fast-growing, leading provider, we proudly serve patients across Arizona, Colorado, Kentucky, Missouri, Nevada, New Mexico, Tennessee, Texas, and Utah. If you're a compassionate individual who puts patients first and thrives in a mission-driven, collaborative environment, we want you to join our team! Apply today and help us continue delivering exceptional care to those who need it most. We are seeking a compassionate skilled Nurse (RN or LPN) in El Rito, NM to provide patient care in accordance with a physician-established care plan. This is a 1099 contract opportunity, with care provided at the patient's residence. The patient requires 10 hours a month of care. The patient prefers visits on Fridays and wants 2, 5 hour visits a month, with no preference on time or day. Once patients are accepted into the program, there is no expiration for this benefit, allowing our caregivers to build lasting relationships with their patients for years to come. In this role, you will advocate for the patients and work one-on-one to deliver the care they need. You will collaborate with CNAs, HHAs, Case Managers, and the patient's physicians. Offers are contingent upon passing a background check. \n
