PRN Nurse Clause Samples
The PRN Nurse clause defines the terms under which a nurse is employed on an as-needed, or "pro re nata" (PRN), basis rather than as a full-time or regularly scheduled staff member. This clause typically outlines the conditions for scheduling, compensation, and the nurse's responsibilities, specifying that work hours are not guaranteed and are dependent on the facility's fluctuating needs. By establishing these parameters, the clause provides flexibility for both the employer and the nurse, ensuring that staffing levels can be adjusted efficiently to meet patient care demands without committing to fixed employment terms.

PRN Nurses are expected to provide written notice of availability (or unavailability) at least ten (10) days prior to the posting date for each schedule period. PRN Nurses shall not be scheduled when full or part time Nurses are available to be scheduled without creating an overtime situation.
