Registered Nurse (RN) – Emergency Department (Part Time)

The individual must demonstrate the knowledge and skills necessary to provide care and interact appropriately with patients of all ages served by their assigned unit. They must also possess an understanding of the principles of growth and development across the lifespan and the ability to assess data reflective of the patient’s status. This includes interpreting the necessary information to identify each patient’s age-specific needs and providing care as described in the department’s policies and procedures.

Experience and Education:

• 0 to 2 years of experience.
• BSN preferred.

Skills and Abilities:

• Ability to establish and maintain positive, caring relationships with executives, managers, physicians, non-physician providers, ancillary and support staff, other departments, and patients/families.
• Ability to work productively and effectively within a complex environment, handle multiple/changing priorities, and operate specialized equipment.
• Good clinical judgment with critical thinking, analytical, and problem-solving abilities related to various aspects of patient care.
• Critical thinking skills necessary to exercise and lead others in the application of the nursing process.
• Mobility and visual manual dexterity.
• Physical stamina for frequent walking, standing, lifting, and positioning of patients.

Flexible Work Options:

ST Health offers a variety of flexible options. In addition to traditional rotating/flexible shifts, special programs exist to work primarily night shifts or weekend shifts with a premium pay differential. Employees hired into or transitioning to these programs must have at least 6 months of nursing experience and may need to complete any necessary orientation during regular business hours. If interested in these programs, please inform your recruiter when contacted for an interview.

Licensure, Certifications, and Clearances:

• ST Health-approved national certification preferred.
• Current licensure as a Registered Professional Nurse in the state where the facility is located or in a state covered by a licensure compact agreement.
• CPR certification based on AHA standards, including both a didactic and skills demonstration component within 30 days of hire.
• Graduate nurses must complete the licensure examination within six months of hire or within one year of graduation, whichever comes first. Temporary permits are valid for one year from the date of graduation, not from the issue date of the permit. ST Health requires that GNs take the licensure examination within six months of their start date or face termination or demotion from the GN position, at the discretion of the BU.

Required Certifications:

• Basic Life Support (BLS) or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
• Registered Nurse (RN) or Temporary Practice Permit (TPP)
• Act 33
• Act 34
• Act 73 FBI Clearance

Current licensure is required either in the state where the facility is located or, if the facility is in a state covered by the multistate Nursing Licensure Compact (NLC) agreement, a multistate license issued by a participating NLC state. Hires and current employees working on an out-of-state NLC license who later change their residency to the state where the facility is located will have 60 days upon changing their residency to apply for licensure within that state.
