About this role
Pediatric Private Duty Nurse (PDN) – RN/LPN – 1:1 Ratio
Looking for a nursing job where you're supported, valued, and appreciated — not just told you are? At Phoenix Home Care & Hospice, our promises aren't just spoken, they're signed.
We're hiring RNs and LPNs for 1:1 pediatric private duty cases in Mount Vernon, Missouri. You'll work one-on-one with a child or young adult in their home, providing the kind of focused, skilled care that's nearly impossible to deliver in a facility setting.
The Details
- 1:1 patient ratio — one nurse, one patient, every shift
- Multiple pediatric cases currently open in the Mount Vernon area, so we can often match you to a schedule that fits your life — days, nights, or weekends
- Cases vary in acuity; many involve trach, ventilator, or G-tube care, so experience with complex pediatric needs is a plus
- Pay discussed at interview and based on experience
Perfect for You If You're…
- A hospital nurse craving meaningful, one-on-one care instead of a six-patient assignment
- A student nurse looking for flexible, hands-on experience
- Semi-retired and wanting rewarding, part-time work on your terms
What You'll Do
- Provide 1:1 skilled nursing care to a pediatric or young adult patient in their home
- Manage complex care needs, which may include trach/vent management, G-tube feeding, and related monitoring
- Build a real relationship with one family who will come to know and rely on you
Why Nurses Choose Phoenix
- 24/7 on-call support, so you're never navigating a tough case alone
- Orientation and hands-on training to set you up for success from day one
- Team events that celebrate and recognize the work you do
