Full-Time or Part-Time RN or LPN – Mesa, AZ
About The Position
Dependable Nurses, Inc. is seeking a compassionate, dependable Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) to provide skilled one-on-one in-home nursing care for a medically fragile patient in Mesa, Arizona. This is a full-time opportunity with flexible days and hours, making it a great fit for a nurse who is looking for consistency while still having some flexibility in their schedule. Because this patient is medically fragile and particularly vulnerable to illness and infection, we are looking for a nurse who is willing to take additional precautions to help protect the patient's health and safety.
