What is an independent contractor LPN?

An Independent Contractor LPN (Licensed Practical Nurse) is a nursing professional who works on a contract basis rather than being employed by a single healthcare facility. They provide nursing care in various settings, such as homes, clinics, or long-term care facilities, based on agreements with clients or agencies. Independent Contractor LPNs manage their own schedules, negotiate their pay rates, and handle their own taxes and insurance. This role offers flexibility and autonomy but also requires self-discipline and business management skills.

What are the typical work environments and responsibilities of an independent contractor LPN?

Independent Contractor LPNs often provide care in diverse settings such as private homes, assisted living facilities, clinics, or even through telehealth platforms. Daily responsibilities usually include patient assessments, medication administration, wound care, and accurate documentation, all managed independently according to each assignment’s requirements. Unlike traditional staff roles, independent contractors coordinate their schedules, handle their own client communications, and may work with multiple agencies or healthcare organizations. This role requires adaptability and strong organizational skills but offers flexibility and the opportunity to broaden your experience across different healthcare environments.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an independent contractor LPN?

To thrive as an Independent Contractor LPN, you need valid LPN licensure, strong clinical nursing skills, and experience in patient care across various settings. Familiarity with electronic health records (EHRs), remote charting systems, and compliance documentation is typically required. Excellent time management, self-motivation, and communication abilities set successful independent contractors apart in this flexible role. These skills are crucial for delivering quality patient care, maintaining accurate records, and effectively managing your caseload as a self-directed professional.

Job description

Take control of your career: Build your LPN schedule around your life

If you're tired of having little control over your schedule or want the flexibility to earn on your terms, flexible acute LPN shifts as an independent contractor could be exactly what you're looking for.
Independent licensed practical nurses like you use ShiftKey to connect with a nationwide network of hospitals. You bid on the shifts that match your preferences, and you choose your rate.

Choose the hospitals you want. Pick the days you want. Set the rate you want.

Whether you're looking for extra income, better work/life balance or more control over when you work, ShiftKey gives you the freedom to:

Take control of your schedule: Skip night shifts, keep your Mondays free, keep time open for school pick up. You work only when it makes sense for you.

Earn on your terms: Use ShiftKey to earn extra income, even if you have another job. You can get paid instantly through ShiftKey Wallet,* have instant payments sent to an existing debit card,** or opt for direct deposit.

Find the right environment: Flexible acute LPN shifts give you the opportunity to experience a variety of hospital settings and choose what works best for you.

Because you're an independent contractor professional, you can also access and purchase portable benefits through our partner, Stride Health. That includes options for:

  • Medical
  • Dental
  • Vision
  • Life Insurance

(Insurance is provided through Stride Health. ShiftKey does not offer health, dental, vision or life insurance.)

Requirements:

  • A high school diploma or GED
  • A valid LPN license in the state of LA

What you might do:

You already know how essential licensed practial nurses are to acute care teams. Your work supports patient comfort, continuity of care, and day-to-day progress toward recovery.

Depending on the shift, you may:

  • Chart and record medications and treatments
  • Observe patients and report changes in condition
  • Measure and record vital signs, weight, height, and other diagnostics
  • Comfort and reassure patients
What LPNs using ShiftKey have to say about us:

“Using ShiftKey changed my life! I don't have to work nights anymore, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to spend time with my family. I learned how to prioritize care and go from facility to facility without missing a beat, and I've gotten to know and learn from various patients and care providers!” - Srebrina, LPN

“Using the ShiftKey app has allowed me to have the work-life balance that I desperately needed!” - Jaime, LPN


*Timing of payments may vary based on invoice approvals and are subject to a $2.95 fee per payment from ShiftKey. Manual review of an invoice usually takes <24 hours but can take up to a week. Once your invoice is approved, we can start processing your payment.
**Timing of payments directly to an external debit card may vary based on invoice approvals and are subject to a 2% fee of the total payment ($2.99 minimum fee).
