Your job is more than a job. You didn’t choose nursing. It chose you. For as long as you can remember you had this calling to be a contributor to the greater good in this world. Maybe orthopedic nursing wasn’t even on your radar. Pardon us while we give you some insight into why it could be the perfect fit for a nurse like you. You’re a natural born teacher, with a knack for problem solving, and desire to build a variety of your skills. You like seeing immediate results with patients who were previously struggling, now on their way to recovery in real time. You love being a part of the everyday extraordinary. That’s ortho nursing. And we love the thought of being the ambassador of your nursing inspirations and aspirations because there’s no one like you. Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and your “little something extra” all add up to you. And we’re excited to get to know you and find out what you’ll bring to this critical nursing role.
