WE WORK FOR YOU!
We take the time to get to know you!

As an independent contractor you will have the benefit of determining your pay rate and the hours you will work with your clients. Upon registration, you will have the opportunity to meet several Lynden Nursing office team members in person. We take the time to get to know you, understand your likes, dislikes and other objective preferences, allowing us to find appropriate client referrals for you.

You have the right to pursue or decline any client opportunity we inform you about.

Here is how we can help!
