Maxim Healthcare in Charleston is seeking Registered Nurses to provide one-on-one care for pediatric and/or adult patients in the comfort of their homes. Most patients who qualify for private duty nursing services require specialized care involving tracheostomy and ventilator management, making experience with these skills highly desirable.
That said, we also encourage nurses without current or prior tracheostomy or ventilator experience to apply. Some patients require other skilled nursing services, such as tube feeding management and care for various complex medical needs. Maxim welcomes compassionate nurses who are eager to make a difference and grow their clinical expertise.
