Job Description

Your Opportunity:

Alberta Health Services (AHS) is looking for Registered Nurses (RNs) to join our team! As a RN, you will work within a multidisciplinary team and play a key role in the support of an integrated holistic approach to the patient\'s health care, health promotion and health maintenance. Working in a rural community will grow your nursing skills and challenge your ability to balance varying levels of patient acuity and priorities. You will be responsible for the assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of safe quality care following the policies and guidelines of AHS. You will serve a diverse patient population with a continual focus on the core values of AHS - compassion, accountability, respect, excellence, and safety. As part of a multidisciplinary team of dedicated health care professionals, you will be expected to utilize your critical thinking and problem-solving skills to provide direct patient and family centered care to patients across the life span. You will also demonstrate a professional and positive attitude with excellent communication while prioritizing multiple demands. Central Alberta is bordered by the Rocky Mountains on the west and the Saskatchewan border to the east. Rich in farmland and natural resources, Central Alberta has lots of opportunity to flourish in its diversified economy. With lovely small towns and cities, it\'s the perfect place to raise your family and become part of a close-knit community. Take a horseback trail ride under the skilled guidance of a local ranch hand or take a paddle down one of our many rivers and lakes. Attend a summer festival or a winter carnival or spend hours in a sunflower maze or a u-pick garden, experiencing a wide range of multi-seasonal activities. Working in central Alberta offers the best of both worlds. It\'s beautiful, peaceful and provides a great backdrop for a fulfilling career.
