About The Position

At Saint Alphonsus Health System, we are looking for people who are living out their calling. We want you to be passionate about coming to work, and challenged to achieve your potential. Living by these virtues, we pride ourselves on exceptional service and the highest quality of care. We are looking to hire Emergency and Trauma Nurses to support the Emergency Department at our Level II Trauma Center in Boise, Idaho! We have several positions open to fit your needs! This includes full-time, night shift (with opportunities to move to day or mid shift) and a few hybrid schedules for those who like to shake things up from time to time. Many colleagues who support our Emergency Department (ED) in Boise also have the unique opportunity to float to our freestanding Emergency Department in Eagle, Idaho. Full time positions are eligible for consideration of a sign on bonus and generous relocation assistance! We also offer competitive wages, on-call pay, and shift differentials depending on work schedules. Our nurses enjoy autonomy in their naturally fast paced roles, and work closely with a collaborative and interactive emergency physician group, as well as trauma, ortho, and neurosurgeons, among other specialties. Teamwork is at the core of how we function. As a nurse in our ED, you will care for emergency patients, as well as run trauma cases that pass through our doors. We offer advanced treatment protocols, and in addition to being a Level II Trauma Center, are designated as a Level I STEMI Center and a Level I Stroke Center. Our Boise Emergency Department has 34 beds to serve patients of all ages. As the most advanced trauma center in the region, we represent a continuum of care that incorporates the rapid, critical care response of Life Flight, the Emergency Department; comprehensive, multi-specialty surgical expertise including neuroscience, trauma, orthopedics, critical care units, rehabilitation, as well as the state-of-the-art diagnostic and treatment technologies. Our Eagle Emergency Department is a 14 bed free-standing center that serves our patients 24/7, typically offering a much shorter wait time than experienced at larger facilities. Staffed by board-certified emergency doctors and specially trained staff, we provide a highly collaborative environment that continually seeks innovative ideas to better serve our patients. Idaho's capital city (and third largest city in the Pacific Northwest!) is located in the high desert of southwestern Idaho, right on the Boise River. Offering a stellar quality life, Boise also features a vibrant and urban downtown, cultural and culinary experiences, and a wealth of entertainment options. Boasting over 200 days of sunny weather each year, recreational opportunities abound - most notably the 25 mile-long Boise River Greenbelt, which links together a series of beautiful public parks and the Boise Foothills, which offers an interconnected network of roads and trails through the hills. Consistently high ranking on various top ten lists relating to safety, affordability and work-life balance, it's easy to see why Boise is the place to be.
