Pediatric Private Duty Home Health Nurse
About The Position
Iowa Home Care is growing its Pediatric Private Duty Nursing team and is currently hiring compassionate Full-Time and Part-Time RNs and LPNs throughout the Des Moines Metro Area. Many of the children we serve are waiting to be discharged from Children's Hospitals across Iowa. They can't come home until they have a dedicated nursing team. This role offers a rewarding nursing career with flexible scheduling, one-on-one patient care, and the opportunity to make a difference. For more than 25 years, Iowa Home Care has been helping children and families receive exceptional healthcare at home. Our nurses become part of the family, celebrating milestones, providing comfort, and helping children experience life outside of a hospital room. The team is built on four core values: Dedicated, Loving, Professional, and A-Players.
