About The Position

Nurses are oriented to all three areas and care for a diverse pediatric population according to patient needs and census.

The role is part of a collaborative team that uses daily interdisciplinary rounds to coordinate care. Physicians and respiratory therapists are on site 24/7. The position works nights, 7:00 p.m. to 7:30 a.m., and requires a weekend and holiday rotation.
