Nurse Manager – Inpatient Psychiatry | St. Louis, MO
Prolink is partnering with the largest hospital in Missouri — a U.S. News top-ranked, Magnet-certified facility — to place a Nurse Manager for their Inpatient Psychiatry program. This is a direct placement opportunity overseeing two inpatient behavioral health campuses with a combined 71 beds across Intensive, Psychiatric Medicine, Geriatric Psych, and acute adult units.
What You Will Be Doing
You will have 24/7 operational and clinical oversight of two inpatient behavioral health campuses, leading a team of 72 FTEs with four direct reports. Responsibilities include staffing, budget management, quality improvement, regulatory compliance, and front-line staff support. You will rotate after-hours call with your assistant nurse managers and float between both campuses as needed.
What We Are Looking For
Minimum 2 years of RN experience with inpatient clinical leadership experience is required. Strong candidates will have 5 years of RN experience and 2–5 years in a nurse manager or charge/supervisory role. Psychiatric nursing experience is a plus but not required — solid inpatient management experience will be considered. Forensic nursing background is a strong differentiator. Bachelor's degree in Nursing required; MSN preferred. Active RN license in Missouri or a compact state required. EPIC experience preferred.
