    Job Summary and Responsibilities

    To thrive as an ER nurse, you should exhibit teamwork, professionalism, critical thinking skills, and a willingness to take on additional projects such as patient experience initiatives. More than anything, you should be energetic and motivated to provide quality care to all of our patients, maintaining their dignity at every step.

     

    This is a full-time, 12-hour, rotating AM/PM shift position including weekends and holidays.

    + **Culturally Sensitive Care:** Deliver care that respects cultural differences, values, beliefs, and customs.

    + **Documentation & Planning:** Document nursing care plans and patient condition changes.
