What can you expect from working per diem nursing jobs?
Per diem nursing jobs are fill-in assignments in hospitals or other healthcare facilities that need nurses on a limited (or “ad hoc”) basis. Per diem nurses are only called upon when they’re needed — for instance, when a staff nurse is absent, or when patient census spikes.
So, when you work per diem nursing jobs, you’re on call to work certain days, whether it’s just one shift, a full weekend, or an extended assignment.

What are the benefits of working per diem nursing jobs?
Flexibility . Many nurses choose per diem jobs as a way to maintain a steady income while working part-time. If you’re looking for a flexible work/life balance that gives you plenty of time to spend with your family — or go to school, work another job, volunteer, or any number of other options — working part-time as a per diem nurse could be the right choice for you.
Extra income . On the other hand, some nurses work per diem nursing jobs to boost their earnings. Especially for nurses and aides who work fixed schedules (at a school, say, or a nursing home), being on call on evenings or weekends is a great way to earn extra money, and pick up new experience, too.
Other benefits of per diem nursing jobs include:
- Getting to choose which days you’re available and set your own schedule
