This individual must demonstrate knowledge of the principles of growth and development over the life span, possess the ability to assess data reflective of the patient’s status, and interpret the appropriate information needed to identify each patient's requirements relative to his/her age-specific needs.

During the 20 pay periods, the nurse works 7 shifts per 2-week pay period. The hours worked during the 20 pay periods (which is the minimum) allow the nurse to work full-time hours and accumulate enough PTO to pay for their benefits throughout the summer months. At the end of the summer off scheduling program, OSUMC may choose to extend another period of the summer off scheduling program. If another Summer Off scheduling program is not offered or is not extended to you, this position reverts to a normal schedule of three,12-hour shifts per week.
