Registered Nurse Career Opportunity

Experience nursing as it was meant to be.

We're looking for Registered Nurses who are inspired by the prospect of caregiving the way it should be. Here, you'll have time to build relationships and enjoy the rewards of helping people getting back to their lives again. Experience the difference of nursing in a rehab hospital with the latest technology at your fingertips and a wide range of opportunities among kindred spirits. Count on having a flexible schedule that we build together so you can live your best life. Yes, we do that, too.

A little about us:

We're a Nurse first organization and we think that's special. Whether you're building a foundation in your early career or you're a seasoned nurse looking for a better environment to call home, we're confident you'll see the difference the moment you join. We're not your ordinary rehab hospital either. Being recently named one of the "World's Most Admired Companies" and a Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® Award, among others, is pretty amazing.

Our benefits start on day one:

  • Affordable medical, dental, and vision plans for full and part-time employees and their families.
  • Generous paid time off that accrues over time.
  • Tuition reimbursement and continuing education opportunities.
  • Company-matching 401(k) and employee stock purchase plans.
  • Flexible spending and health savings accounts.
  • A community of people who love what they do. Yes, we see that as a benefit.


Be the kind of Nurse you've always wanted to be:

  • Help patients through supervising care and treatments, leading patient assessments, creating personalized care plans, and targeting and resolving patient concerns.
  • Have the time to learn about each patient's physical, mental, and emotional needs to help them recover.
  • Build rewarding relationships with patients during stays that start at two weeks.
  • Open access to opportunity to learn, grow, advance, and build skills that last a lifetime.


Certifications and Licensures:

  • Current RN licensures appropriate to state regulations required.
  • CPR certification required (ACLS preferred).
  • CRRN certification preferred (If you don't have it, we can assist you to obtain it!)
  • One or more years of experience in an inpatient rehabilitation hospital setting is preferred.
