Nurse Manager Role Overview

As a Nurse Manager at Catholic Health Initiatives, you will oversee a department of frontline nurses and act as the liaison between these caregivers and leadership teams.

You will communicate the organization's goals to the nursing staff as we continuously strive to improve patient experiences, engage with our community, and deliver quality care.

At the same time, you will advocate for your team by bringing any issues, requests, or new ideas from them to leadership.

To thrive in this role, you must be competent and confident.

Utilizing your excellent communication skills one-on-one and in front of groups, you will tackle tough conversations and, above all, be an educator at heart.

Every interaction is an opportunity to share your knowledge with others and improve their understanding of a patient's needs, the needs of the nursing staff, or the needs of the organization.


If you are committed to social justice, health equity, and prepared to deliver care in new, innovative ways, you belong with us.

  • Monitor attendance among nursing staff, watching for any patterns of missed shifts which may need addressing.
  • Monitor productivity and efficiency of your department, including budgets. We want to achieve the best throughput while never compromising on care.
  • Mentor people on your team. Share your knowledge and confidence with assistant nurse managers, charge nurses, and others. Build them into potential nurse managers like yourself.
