Make a Difference Every Day

Are you a compassionate Registered Nurse looking for an opportunity to make a meaningful difference beyond the traditional healthcare setting?

Join our team and use your nursing expertise to promote the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).

What You'll Do

As a Registered Nurse, you will coordinate and monitor medical, psychiatric, and medication services while ensuring care meets individual needs and applicable regulatory requirements.

Participate in agency training activities and provide training and education to staff on health-related topics, including signs and symptoms of illness, vital signs, medication management, and appropriate nursing procedures.

Help orient new nursing staff and team members.

Contribute to community and public education initiatives.

Attend staff, nursing, discipline, and committee meetings as assigned.

Collaborate closely with an interdisciplinary team dedicated to person-centered care.

  • A current Rhode Island Registered Nurse (RN) license.
  • A minimum of2 years of experience as a Registered Nurse.
