• Manage departmental scheduling, timecard edits, interviewing, quality data collection, incident report tracking, sick call logs, and daily team huddles.
• Step in to assist with direct floor care across Med/Surg, Pediatric, Geriatric, and ED patient populations when patient volume or acuity exceeds scheduled staffing levels.
• Provide clear operational direction to Charge Nurses, RNs, LPNs, CNAs, Ward Clerks, and Technicians while collaborating closely with House Supervisors, Physicians, Mid-Level Providers, and C-Suite Leadership.

Qualifications:

• Core Competencies:
  • Demonstrated leadership capability with a strong foundation in basic and advanced nursing principles, acute clinical decision-making, and customary emergency/acute care medical equipment.
  • Exceptional interpersonal, communication, conflict resolution, and customer service skills.
  • Ability to balance administrative leadership with active, high-acuity bedside nursing support.

Benefits:

• Competitive base salary range commensurate with leadership and clinical experience.
