Where You Will Work:

The Emergency Department (ED) is a fast-paced, dynamic unit with 17 beds and up to 4 overflow beds during peak times, caring for approximately 82 patients per day with an average stay of 3–6 hours. Our team provides comprehensive emergency care for patients of all ages, from infants to centenarians, across a wide range of conditions. Nurses typically maintain a 1:4 ratio, with nursing assistant support varying by census and acuity. This busy, growing unit offers an exciting environment for professional development, where teammates are highly engaged, actively participate in committees, and celebrate achievements through recognition programs and metric pins. Ideal candidates are dependable, ethical, and eager to learn, with the ability to multi-task and thrive in a fast-paced setting.

This is an excellent opportunity for new graduates or experienced nurses seeking growth in a collaborative, high-energy environment.
