Registered Nurse (RN)

IntelyCare Mokena, IL

$36 - $120 / hour

You can earn up to $120 per hour as a Registered Nurse (RN) in Mokena, IL (and nearby areas) while also having complete control over your schedule. Yes, with IntelyCare, you not only get to decide when, where, and how often you work, but you also get the security, benefits, and support that comes with W2 employment. If you've been looking for a job with the stability you need and the flexibility you deserve, your time has come. IntelyCare was founded by nurses to help their colleagues have the careers that they love without sacrificing their personal lives. As we saw the rise of nurse burnout due to inflexible schedules and nearly impossible workloads due to short staffing, we wanted to make sure that nurses had better options. Our business model is based on work-life balance for our nurse professionals and we work with our trusted facility partners to provide them with a wide range of scheduling options in their area. How would you set up your flexible work schedule? If nature helps you to recharge, maybe you'd like a day off during the week to hike around the Hickory Creek Preserve? Or how about only taking morning shifts in the spring so you can catch all of your son's baseball games at Hecht Park? It's your choice because it's your life and with IntelyCare, your job won't get in the way. Here are even more reasons to consider joining our team. Benefits Registered Nurse (RN) hourly pay range: $36-$120 (25% higher than average) Choice of shift types (day/night, weekday/weekends, per diem, etc.) and facilities Get paid weekly or daily Eligibility for health, vision, and dental benefits (for qualifying family members) Hazard pay and bonus pay for travel, overtime, and holidays Malpractice insurance, taxes, and workers' comp paid for by employer Manage your shifts and other job functions through our user-friendly mobile app Free access to training and continuing education courses through the app 401k retirement benefits Complementary IntelyCare scrubs, water bottles, and other merch At IntelyCare, we've built our company around our nursing professionals, not the other way around.

This company is very organized!" "IntelyCare gives you the opportunity to work on your own terms. It offers you the flexibility to work when you want and gives you all the tools necessary to achieve financial freedom. They display the amount of money you’ll make prior to accepting a shift and allows you to work overtime, which is great." "I love IntelyCare because of the flexibility. Being a single mother of a disabled child while pregnant with another child is hard enough. Not having a set schedule allows me to work around mine and my child’s doctor appointments while still earning a living."
