About this role
We are a home care agency that has been in business since 2007 and in need of a registered nurse to perform in-home assessments of elderly clients in the Fargo, ND region (clients located within a 2-3 hour drive in all directors of Fargo). $60/hour.
The assessment consists of talking to the client in person at their home - and asking a few questions about their non-medical care needs (i.e. Bathing, dressing, grooming, light house cleaning, etc) and filling out a number of health care assessment documents.
The assessments take 30-60 minutes. Travel time is paid from the person's home and back at $60/hour. Flexible schedule. Can work anytime from 8am to 8pm Monday through Sunday. Weekends only is acceptable. Great part-time job for extra money on the side of your regular job. Active RN License is required - NO exceptions .

BEWARE OF SCAMS! IMPORTANT! WE ALWAYS CONNECT WITH JOB APPLICANTS VIA TEXT/PHONE AT FIRST - BUT WILL NEVER OFFER A POSITION TO AN APPLICANT WITHOUT FIRST DOING A ZOOM INTERVIEW OR INTERVIEW IN PERSON IN ONE OF OUR OFFICES. IF SOMEONE TEXTS YOU AND SAYS THEY ARE WITH CARE PLANNING INSTITUTE AND THEY WANT TO DO AN INTERVIEW VIA TEXT AND THEN OFFER YOU A JOB VIA TEXT/PHONE WITH NO ZOOM OR IN PERSON INTERVIEW - THAT IS A SCAM.
Again, we may initially reach out via phone or text - but we will never extend a job offer before doing a face-to-face camera on Zoom or meet with you in one of our office locations . Our online recruiters are all female. If you do a face-to-face Zoom Interview with someone who is NOT female that is a scam.
ALSO, IF THE JOB AD IS LISTED UNDER ANY COMPANY NAME THAT IS NOT ‘CARE PLANNING INSTITUTE’ – IT IS A SCAM. WE DO NOT USE OTHER COMPANIES TO RECRUIT FOR US. LASTLY, IF THEY ARE CONTACTING YOU VIA AN EMAIL ADDRESS THAT DOES NOT END WITH @CAREPLANNINGINSTITUTE. ORG THEN THAT IS A SCAM. WE ONLY USE EMAIL ADDRESSES THAT ARE FROM OUR COMPANY DOMAIN – WE DO NOT USE GMAIL OR ANY OTHER SUCH EMAIL ACCOUNTS.
