Job description

Job Description:

We are seeking reliable and motivated Practical Nurses to join our passionate, energetic care teams in Cranbrook and Kimberley, B.C. Our care team members exemplify a person-centered philosophy designed to support people's choices, help people function at their highest level, and provide the best quality of life possible.

As the Licensed Practical Nurse, you will work in collaboration with the multidisciplinary team performing assessments, planning, implementing, and providing personal and nursing care to patients. You will also administer oral, subcutaneous, and intramuscular medications in accordance with pharmaceutical and organizational policies and procedures. The scope of skills that the LPN performs varies according to the predictability of the outcome for a given client population. The LPN operates according to the competency guidelines and full scope of practice within the Standards of Practice as outlined by the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM), and according to organizational policies, procedures, standards, and unit-specific protocols.

These are casual opportunities. Casual means hours are not guaranteed and may vary, and shifts may be at short notice. Casual employees are eligible to apply for internal postings including permanent and temporary positions. If your goal is a regular line, there are many opportunities with Interior Health that begin with casual employment and can lead to a long career in a regular position. Or if you prefer a flexible schedule while picking up lots of hours, these positions may suit you too!

We hire LPNs to work in long-term care facilities, on home supports and home health teams, and in hospitals!
