RN Telemetry | Concord Hospital | Full Time | Nights
About The Position
The Telemetry Care Unit (4 East) is a team built on collaboration and dedication to the patients we serve. Patients on the Telemetry Care unit are under constant electronic monitoring.

There is a wide array of other conditions that also require close telemetry monitoring. The dynamic population allows teammates to enhance their skills in balancing patient flow and acuity management. You will be working alongside experienced Nurses and LNAs that are adaptable to complex clinical scenarios and maintain a close-knit team-based model of care. We succeed through our goals of serving patients and supporting our team. Telemetry nurses complete specialized training required to read and interpret telemetry data to better determine patient care. Flexible self-scheduling. Shifts are 12 hours in length, starting at 7am or 7pm. Weekend requirement.
