RN or LPN Days Full Time

Take Ownership of Your Shift. Make a Real Impact Every Day. 🩺☀️
Full-Time LPN / RN Staff Nurse
📍 Cleveland County Detention Center | Shelby, NC
🕒 6a to 6p | Day Shift | Full-Time

Are you a nurse who is confident, self-directed, and thrives in a role where you can take initiative and manage patient care independently?

This day shift position offers the opportunity to own your workflow, make clinical decisions, and provide essential care in a structured environment. While support is always available, this role is ideal for someone who is comfortable being the primary nurse on shift at times and can manage responsibilities with confidence and efficiency.

Why This Role Stands Out

☀️ Consistent full-time day shift schedule
☀️ High level of autonomy and trust in your clinical judgment
☀️ Structured environment with clear processes
☀️ Opportunity to make a meaningful impact in an underserved population
☀️ Keeps your skills sharp through a variety of patient needs

What You’ll Do

• Provide direct patient care, including assessments and medication administration
• Respond to sick calls, medical requests, and urgent needs
• Perform intake screenings and ongoing patient evaluations
• Prioritize and manage patient care needs throughout the shift
• Maintain accurate and timely documentation
• Ensure compliance with all clinical policies and procedures
• Support a safe and secure medical environment in collaboration with facility staff

What to Expect

This is a largely independent role during portions of the shift. You will be trusted to manage patient care, make sound clinical decisions, and respond to changing needs with confidence.

Support is available when needed, but your ability to work autonomously and stay organized will be key to success in this position.
