RN Acute Care Surgery Unit PRN Days
About The Position
Med-Surg nursing is the backbone of every hospital, and it’s not for everyone. This role is for nurses who have an unwavering passion, mental toughness, a heart of gold, and mad skills. You love being on the front line of care and getting to know your patients as real people. 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, family request and yes, even the proverbial Jello request. You love the range of nursing skills it demands, and that there’s “never-a-dull-moment”. Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and your “little something extra” all add up to you. We’re excited to get to know you and find out what you’ll bring to this hands-on, diverse nursing role.
