Registered Nurses (RN) - Acute - up to $55/hr

About the Role

ShiftKey helps independent registered nurses connect with a nationwide network of hospitals. As an independent contractor, you bid on shifts that match your preferences and choose your rate, giving you full control over your schedule, earnings, and work environment.

• Choose the hospitals you want to work at.
• Pick the days and shifts that fit your life.
• Set your own rate for each shift.

Whether you're looking for extra income, better work/life balance, or more control over your schedule, ShiftKey provides the flexibility to work on your terms.

Benefits of Flexible Shifts

• Take control of your schedule: Work only when it makes sense for you—skip night shifts, keep Mondays free, or schedule around school pickups.
• Earn on your terms: Use ShiftKey to earn extra income, even if you already have another job. Payment options include:
  • Instant payments through ShiftKey Wallet (subject to a $2.95 fee per payment after invoice approval).
  • Instant payments to an existing debit card (subject to a 2% fee, with a $2.99 minimum).
  • Direct deposit.
  Note: Timing of payments may vary based on invoice approvals. Manual review of an invoice usually takes less than 24 hours but can take up to a week.
• Explore different hospitals: Experience a variety of hospital settings and choose what works best for you.

As an independent contractor, you can also access and purchase portable benefits through our partner, Stride Health, including options for medical, dental, vision, and life insurance. (Insurance is provided through Stride Health; ShiftKey does not offer these benefits directly.)

Requirements

• A high school diploma or GED.
• A valid RN license in the state of New Mexico (NM).
