What Is the Outlook for Night Shift Nursing Jobs?
There is a very positive outlook for nursing jobs, fueled in part by baby boomers, who, as they age, will be seeking more extensive medical care. In addition, many baby boomers who are nurses will start retiring. The result is an increased demand for nurses.
Nursing jobs are growing, with around 194,500 anticipated openings each year—representing a 9 percent growth through 2030, according to the U.S. Bureau for Labor Statistics.
What Are Some Advantages of Working as a Night Shift Nurse in a Skilled Nursing Facility?
There are several advantages of working as a night shift nurse in a skilled nursing facility. We’ll outline a few of them.
Pay Increase
At Brunswick Cove, we offer a financial incentive for working the night shift. This pay differential can be a great added benefit for night shift nurses. We offer a shift differential of $1 an hour for night shift weekdays and $2 an hour for night shift weekends.
Work-Life Balance
Many people find it is easier to maintain a work-life balance working the night shift. For example, allows them to be there when their children come home from school.
A Less Stressful Environment
While all our nurses are busy caring for patients 24/7, many find that during the evening, most patients are sleeping, and therefore, the night shift nurses may have a less stressful schedule than those who work during the daytime.
In certain cases, it even opens the door to having a deeper connection with patients due to the less hectic schedule.
