About the Opportunity

MyShyft is partnering with an inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Lancaster, Ohio (Fairfield County) to provide Registered Nurse coverage for its 36-bed unit, which supports a medically complex patient population including stroke, brain injury, and other neurological rehabilitation cases.

This is a strong fit for an Ohio-licensed RN who thrives in a fast-paced inpatient environment and is looking for the flexibility of per diem work without sacrificing consistency. Nurses can pick up occasional shifts or build a regular weekly schedule, and pay is set by the nurse and processed instantly after every shift.

Because this unit relies on dependable night coverage, the facility is prioritizing candidates who can reliably commit to and complete shifts once accepted.

  • Complete timely, accurate documentation in the facility’s EMR.
  • Respond to clinical emergencies and participate in codes per facility protocol.
