About The Position

If you've got a great heart and passion for nursing, you belong here. Building a sense of connection is vital to your growth and progression as a nurse and it's embedded in every little thing we do at LCMC Health. If you sweat the small stuff and bring all you've got to every patient's bedside, call light, hand hold, chart entry, medical need, team request or family request, you'll fit right in with our 'no-patient-need-is-too-small' culture. Whether you're a new grad or a seasoned caregiver, finding what makes you extraordinary and being a part of something that appreciates and nurtures 'you being you' well, that's what every great nurse, like you, deserves. Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and your 'little something extra' all add up to you. We love that about you. And we're excited to get to know you and find out what you'll bring to this hands-on, diverse nursing role.
