1 week ago
Northern Health Authority is seeking a motivated Licensed Practical Nurse to join our team in the Emergency department at Fort Nelson General Hospital.
Salary and BenefitsWe offer a competitive salary of approximately $53.20 per hour, comprehensive benefits including extended health/dental, and a municipal pension plan for part-time and full-time employees. Casuals have the option of paying for benefits.
Job DescriptionThis training opportunity involves working with a dedicated team in an interdisciplinary clinical framework to provide compassionate patient care. As a Licensed Practical Nurse, you will work closely with the care team in direct care activities such as assessing, planning, implementing, evaluating interventions, and coordinating health services for patients in the Emergency Department.
You will participate in discharge and/or care planning, function as a patient advocate, and teach patients and their families about illness/injury and overall health promotion and wellness. Enhance quality of life from the perspective of the patient/family by establishing, maintaining, and enhancing therapeutic relationships based on respect.
Under a team-based model, you will provide care to patients across the lifespan and their families based on stable and/or predictable states of health by initiating and following established plans of care. Recognize and respond to unexpected patient outcomes by communicating and collaborating with other members of the healthcare team.
Document care provided and response to incidents in accordance with established policies, procedures, and Emergency Department expectations. Consult, confer, and collaborate with other health care providers as needed.
Program DetailsThe Northern Health Regional Emergency Department Education Program (REDEP) utilizes a standardized, evidence-informed online curriculum offered by Elsevier, called Emergency Nursing Orientation (ENO). REDEP combines Elsevier's ENO online curriculum with a skills/simulation lab and clinical practicum to prepare registered nurses to provide safe and competent emergency nursing care, at a novice level.
Preparation will be accomplished by introducing the basic topics, concepts, and practice guidelines that are fundamental to emergency nursing, developing specialized skills, knowledge, attitudes, and judgement required to provide safe, competent, and individualized care to the emergency patient, promoting professionalism in emergency nursing.
There are 2 training positions available for 2024/2025. Northern Health provides placement support and funding for tuition, textbooks, and travel expenses for clinical placements, as required.
Successful candidates may be required to complete pre-requisite courses through part-time distance education, on their own time, prior to assuming this position. Learners should expect to make a 4-month commitment for this education, which includes online and in-person learning.
Additional study time, outside of scheduled hours, may be required to successfully complete the program. Flexibility for practicums is necessary. Prior experience on an acute care ward (medical/surgical) is preferred.
Current BLS certification within a year is mandatory prior to the skills/simulation. Preference for participants who have completed an electrocardiogram (ECG) course prior to beginning REDEP. Applicants must successfully complete the education program prior to working in the department.
Upon successful completion of the education program, Northern Health requires an 18-month return of service in a regular position in the area of nursing applicable to the education program. Qualified applicants will be considered first for specialty positions. If there are no qualified applicants, training lines will be awarded to unqualified applicants and training will be provided.
