ST. LOUIS, MO (OCT. 20, 2022) – As today’s nursing workforce continues to evolve, SSM Health has reshaped its employment approach to create innovative and flexible nursing options. These seven new programs allow nurses the ability to shape their careers, while working with greater freedom and flexibility in a range of PRN and float pool roles.
“We created our programs for today’s caregivers to offer more options, flexibility and earning potential,” explained Seth Lovell, SSM Health System Vice President of Nursing.
Since each program has slightly different work expectations, nurses are able to select a role that fits their individual and professional preferences. The PRN 1-3 programs let nurses work around their schedule to pick up a few extra shifts every month. With PRN 4, nurses can enjoy the benefits of full-time travel nursing without missing home or experiencing the uncertainty of agency or freelance work. The Float Pool programs give nurses the chance to experience different SSM Health regions or specialties.
As more companies are offering enticing alternatives to traditional employment, SSM Health saw the need to develop a lucrative program for today’s caregivers. Lovell shared, “RNs in a flexible nursing role qualify for pay practices that are rarely offered to that segment of the workforce, including shift differentials, critical shift bonuses, and premiums. We are proud to offer these unique programs to all SSM Health nurses.”
Nurses can discover new ways of working while doing what they love. SSM Health Recruiters are ready to chat and create a schedule that fits their lifestyle. Learn more about SSM Health’s Flexible Nursing Options by visiting https://jobs.ssmhealth.com/career-areas/flexiblenursing
