A private duty nurse needs flexible 8-10 hour shifts to accommodate their child's school schedule but is finding only 12-hour shifts available, after being misled by a recruiter.

Current scheduling systems at PDN companies do not offer the flexible shift lengths needed for nurses with family commitments, and recruiters may provide inaccurate information about available shifts.
