Licensed Practical Nurse
Your Opportunity:
The SHC is an innovative concept that is more than a “hospital.” It is built in a campus environment and includes inpatient, outpatient, and wellness services, as well as prevention and public health education and learning opportunities for community members. The campus also includes wellness facilities with partners such as a YMCA, as well as retail and commercial partnerships. The hospital adheres to four key pillars of service: Collaborative Practice, Wellness, Patient and Family Centred Care and Innovation. These pillars are the key philosophical principles used in the development and service of all care to patients and families at SHC. Within the Women’s Health program, SHC has implemented a new and exciting approach to family centered and maternity care: Single Room Maternity Care (SRMC). We are currently recruiting Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) to be part of our SRMC multidisciplinary team. As an LPN in a SRMC model, in addition to providing postpartum and newborn care, they will also have the opportunity to support the team in providing Antepartum and Labour and Delivery care. The Women’s Health LPN provides nursing assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation across a continuum of care, with the purpose of providing safe, quality care for women and families while reflecting the shared vision of SHC. The LPN will be guided by their education, experience, demonstrated skill level and Alberta Health Services policies, procedures, and position description. The successful candidate will participate in a comprehensive 1-month orientation
