The successful candidate will provide leadership towards operationalizing the strategic plan and driving an outstanding and dynamic clinical practice environment, including maintenance of our Magnet designation.

Mercy Health Saint Mary’s nurses have dedicated themselves to becoming the best: we won’t be satisfied until all of our customers experience the best quality and service in every encounter, and nurses can live their passions every day. We’re seeking a visionary thinker whose communication and leadership skills will motivate and inspire others, even if it means challenging the status quo.

IMAGINE SOMETHING MORE….

So, you’re looking for an opportunity to create change and join a highly engaged nursing and leadership team to transform healthcare. You know that healthcare service delivery can look very different from what it is today; you have ideas; and you’re looking for a place that wants to hear about them and has a reputation of high quality. We successfully achieved Magnet^® designation in 2013, are awaiting our re-designation site survey and are transforming our care delivery processes towards population health management.

This is an ideal opportunity for a nurse leader who knows that healthcare service delivery can
be streamlined and who wants to play a significant role in the transformation. Please contact Megan Nguyen at Nguyenc@mercyhealth.com or apply online directly at:
