Job description:
Our nurses are a critical part of the UVM Health team. We celebrate their daily contributions and the positive impact they have on our patients and their health.
At University of Vermont Health, you will work with a diverse group of nurses, physicians, and specialty practitioners who personally care about their patients and community. No matter the location, every employee has a hand in contributing to the wellness of patients. You'll discover a culture of teamwork, professionalism, and mutual respect at UVM Health.
Department Description: Our High Technology Nursing program provides skilled, compassionate in-home nursing for patients who require around-the-clock care and advanced medical technology. Our nurses rotate through care, so you will never be required to work longer than your schedule 8, 10, or 12 hour shift.
Our team provides one-on-one, in-home care to adults and children with critical and complex medical needs. We do this by utilizing advanced medical equipment in the comfort of each patient’s home. You’ll have the chance to build meaningful relationships with patients and families.
We also provide high-level care to patients who sustained life-threatening illnesses or injuries in the past, often following trauma or major surgery. We monitor and manage these patients by operating complex equipment, administering medication, and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams.
Even though you work independently in the home, you’re never alone—your manager and care team are only a phone call away. We believe in taking care of our nurses, so they can take care of our patients.
