At Mercy Hospital, we’re called to serve people when they need it most.

Our nurses are essential to that mission, and every unit plays a vital role in the care we provide. To ensure we’re always ready to meet patient needs, our RNs may occasionally float to other units when census levels or patient care demands require it.

We understand the passion nurses bring to their chosen specialties—and we value that deeply. When caring calls, we answer- together. Whether you are working on your home unit or supporting another team, you’ll be surrounded by trusted colleagues, strong leadership, and the Mercy spirit of compassion.

This approach helps new and experienced nurses grow while ensuring our patients receive the highest level of care across all units. While floating, you will always receive the support and resources needed to feel confident and prepared.

When caring calls, we go.
