Job Description

Are you a passionate RN looking to take your skills beyond the bedside and into the heart of the community? We're looking for a dedicated, dynamic nurse to join our outpatient team-someone who's not only clinically sharp, but also a natural educator, community collaborator, and champion of chronic disease prevention, especially diabetes.

In this role, you'll wear many hats (and probably rock them all): provider of top-notch patient care, health educator, interdisciplinary team player, community advocate, and go-to diabetes expert. No two days will be the same, and your impact will stretch far beyond the clinic walls.

What You'll Do

• Provide compassionate care to patients across the spectrum-acute, chronic, and terminal-within an ambulatory setting.

• Assess patient needs and develop individualized plans of care using the full power of the nursing process.

• Be the RN that patients trust, families appreciate, and coworkers admire.

• Collaborate closely with patients, families, fellow healthcare professionals, and community stakeholders.

• Deliver diabetes education and health promotion programs that change lives, in clinic and out in the community.

• Train, mentor, and support students and local healthcare professionals.

• Coordinate community outreach activities and educational programs in schools, businesses, and other organizations.

• Create and share health education materials-brochures, slides, videos, and more.

• Represent the nursing profession with professionalism, kindness, and a drive for continuous improvement.

• Keep your practice razor-sharp by attending workshops, reading the latest research, and staying up to date on compliance and best practices.

• Participate in quality improvement efforts, program evaluations, and compliance initiatives.

• Bring passion and purpose to your work every single day.

What You Bring:

• Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN).

• Have a current Missouri RN license.

• Have and maintain a current BCLS certification.

• Are a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE) - or are ready to complete the exam within 18 months of hire.

• Have at least 4 years of experience in nursing, ideally with a focus on diabetes care and women's health

• Understand the principles and practices of diabetes education and public health programming.

• Have strong communication skills and can effectively present to individuals and groups.

• Work well independently, manage priorities efficiently, and meet deadlines with minimal supervision.

• Are knowledgeable about state, federal, and local regulations and can operate within established compliance frameworks.

• Deliver age-appropriate care and understand how to meet diverse patient needs.

• Thrive in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment and are committed to ongoing learning.

If you're ready to make a real difference-not just in patient lives but across the entire community-apply now and help us shape the future of healthcare.
