Your Contribution:

The Licensed Nurse, under the supervision of the Director of Nursing, delivers licensed nursing care and associated technical services for individuals with mental health challenges, ensuring a safe environment by assessing medical stabilization, monitoring, evaluating, intervening in crises, and providing structured activities and support.

Responsibilities include documenting daily care, reporting changes to medical professionals, and assisting with nursing-related tasks as assigned.

The Licensed Nurse is expected to foster a safe, clean, and healthy environment while adhering to established procedures for handling, cleaning, or moving materials.

Compliance with departmental protocols, policies, guidelines, and facility standards is essential, along with regular communication with other members of the multidisciplinary team.

This role requires physical capabilities, flexibility in scheduling, and the ability to work in various conditions and environments, with 85% of responsibilities involving direct patient care.

Administer immunizations; prepare and provide prescribed medications via various routes including oral, subcutaneous, intramuscular, rectal, topical, and inhalation.

Monitor patient behavior; identify symptoms that may hinder the patient's ability to function; build rapport and understanding with patients to achieve specific goals; discuss nursing assignments, care, and individual patient needs with Clinical Staff based on ongoing assessments and observations, and plan therapeutic interventions to prevent crises.

Qualifications & Requirements:

Education: Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) or Licensed Psychiatric Technician (LPT) degree from an accredited nursing program is a fundamental requirement for all Licensed Nurse positions.

Experience: No additional experience beyond the basic requirements is necessary. Licensed Nurses at this level are expected to perform all duties within their licensure scope. However, completed work may require routine or detailed higher-level review depending on the complexity of the tasks involved.
