Second job

Nurses General Nursing

I am looking for second job to help knock out my student loans. I already work full-time (3-12 hour shifts) on an extremely busy telemetry floor so I would like to find a second job where I'm NOT running up and down hospital hallways for my entire shift. Any suggestions?

I did some temp/agency work-specifically signing up for really easy stuff (no inpatient). I ended up giving flu shots around the area where I lived for $30/hr. While there was sometimes some travel involved, it was reimbursed, the work was suuupppper easy, and I was always paid for the full time I was scheduled for even if the crowd coming had trickled down considerably.

The agency (Favorite Staffing...don't know at all if there is a location near you) also had some other "easy" opportunities like giving health fairs at pharmacies/etc. The only drawback was that since they are cake jobs you had to sign up or contact the agency QUICKLY once they were posted.

I was going to say giving immunizations but didn't know you could do that as agency work. Hmmmm, interesting.

I would suggest hourly-type private duty. I bust my sizeable butt in peds ICU as my 'real' job, and then care for an adorable vent-dependent kiddo in his home. I jokingly refer to this as my 'Netflix' job- because I watch a lot of it during the long overnights.

There are similar PDN jobs with adults. For me, it is just the right balance.

Urgent Care Clinics are popping up everywhere..some of them even hire RNs.
