United Energy Workers Healthcare

Founded by the grandchildren of a former DOE worker, the company has operated for more than a decade and is rooted in the uranium mining community of Blanding, Utah. UEW serves energy worker communities across multiple states, from Paducah, Kentucky to Waverly, Ohio, and from Aiken, South Carolina to Richland, Washington, with a presence in De Soto, Missouri. The organization focuses on whole-person care that addresses both medical needs and the chronic conditions connected to energy work. For nurses, UEW offers positions as In-Home Health Care Registered Nurses working as 1099 Independent Contractors. This model provides flexibility and autonomy, allowing nurses to build meaningful relationships with patients in their homes while delivering holistic care. The role involves coordinating care, conducting meaningful home visits, and partnering with community providers to keep patients safe and supported at home. Nurses should be prepared for an independent contractor arrangement rather than traditional employment, which affects benefits, job security, and compensation structure.

UEW's mission is to elevate the lives of energy workers with unwavering compassion and whole-person care. Their core values are encapsulated in the PEAK framework: Performance (relentlessly delivering results with excellence, efficiency, and consistency), Engagement (building meaningful connections with colleagues, patients, and partners), Accountability, and Knowledge. Their stated motto is 'Best Patient Care and Best Place to Work.' The organization emphasizes treating patients like family and delivering care that protects dignity, supports independence, and strengthens health at home.
