Alternatively, you may provide care to federal government workers, often by visiting their offices. The federal government itself employs a limited number of nurses, as most nurses who work for the government are contractors working with an outside agency, so you may want to consider looking at a variety of employers when searching for a job in this field. Jobs directly with the federal government may only show up on certain websites, so be sure to check these resources as well.
