Your job is more than a job.
Your calling as an LPN Nurse demonstrates your humanity and confirms your unwavering passion, heart of gold, and of course, your hands-on nursing style. You're on the front line of care (cardiac, medical, surgical, and post critical care) and that means you get to know your patients as more than just a diagnosis or a room number.
You're a healthcare warrior and you gather every ounce of kindness, knowledge, and understanding at the patient's bedside. Whether it's a call light, a hand hold, a medical need, a family request and yes, even a proverbial 'extra blanket" request, you bring your heart and soul to everything you do. You love using your range of nursing skills and a "never-a-dull-moment" nursing environment. And that's what we love about you.
Your experiences, knowledge, skills, empathy, compassion, and your "little something extra" all add up to you. And we're excited to get to know you and find out what you'll bring to this hands-on, diverse nursing role.
