Per diem nursing jobs, also known as "PRN" nursing jobs, are different from full-time salaried nursing and part-time contract nursing in several ways. For one, per diem nurses are generally paid a higher hourly rate than full-time or part-time nurses. Per diem nurses are also able to choose what shifts they accept, creating more flexibility than full-time or contract positions where hours and schedules are set. Unlike full-time nurses, per diem workers work as independent contractors, meaning they are responsible for estimating their own taxes and do not receive benefits like health insurance.

Requirements to work through the CareRev App in Illinois vary based on profession, specialty, and facility. All professionals will need the proper licensing and certification required by the state of Illinois to practice in their specialty. Find a shift to learn about specific requirements by shift.
