Break Free from the Routine — Be a Nursing Superhero

Tired of being tied to one unit or floor? Want more variety in your workweek — without sacrificing stability or benefits?

As a Full-Time Medical Coverage Nurse with Southern Health Partners (SHP), you’ll bring your skills to facilities that need you most. From scheduled vacations to last-minute call-outs or medical leaves, you’ll be the go-to support that keeps care consistent and patients safe.

You’ll travel to jail facilities within a 2-hour radius of your home
, with mileage, lodging, and per diem covered — while enjoying full-time pay, benefits, and job security
.

Why This Role Stands Out:
  • Guaranteed 36+ Hours Weekly
  • Mileage Reimbursement (home to assignment)
  • Meal Per Diem + Hotel Coverage (when overnight stays required)
  • Cell Phone Stipend (if applicable)
  • Free Monthly CE Credits
  • Tuition Discounts + Reimbursement Opportunities
  • 401(k) + Company-Paid Life Insurance
  • Referral Bonus Program
  • Professional Liability Insurance
What You’ll Do:
  • Step in to provide essential nursing coverage at local jail facilities
  • Deliver hands-on patient care in a secure, structured setting
  • Perform assessments, med passes, triage, and emergency response
  • Collaborate with on-site staff and SHP clinical leadership
  • Maintain clear, confidential medical documentation

Thrive on variety, autonomy, and mission-driven work

Enjoy being the calm in the chaos — reliable, professional, and prepared

Make an Impact. Stay Local. Get Paid Like a Pro.

, flexibility, and a team that always has your back.
