Job description

City/State Virginia Beach, VA Work Shift First (Days) Overview: Sentara Health is currently hiring for an RN to work at Sentara Virginia Beach General Hospital on the Ortho/Joint 3 West Unit. Sign on Bonus for qualified candidates! Hours/Shift: Part-Time (24hrs) - Days

Job Description Summary

The Registered Nurse (RN) provides comprehensive, patient-centered care in a dynamic healthcare setting. This role involves assessing patient needs, developing individualized care plans, delivering treatments, and supporting patients and families with education and compassionate service. The RN collaborates within an interdisciplinary team to monitor patient progress, make clinical adjustments, and advocate for the best patient outcomes, ensuring safety and adherence to evidence-based practices.

Department/Position Overview

3 West Ortho is a 12-bed unit that accommodates a variety of post-operative surgical procedures including total hip, knees, shoulders, ankles & spine. We do anywhere from 10-20+ surgical admissions & discharges per week, so we have a quick patient turnover. Being that most of our patients are admitted via elective procedure it makes the patient population a joy as they are often very thankful for our staff & have an anticipated plan of care managing pain, physical therapy & monitoring post operative complications. We enforce more independence by promoting mobility which decreases the amount of total care patients we have which is also a bonus for our small unit.

It Makes It Great to Be an RN on Our Unit?

I pride myself on having a TEAM of nurses who are passionate about what they do. This increases their ability to provide a positive work environment where each staff member works together to complete their daily tasks through the busy days of a bedside nurse. My unit coordinators work closely will all bedside nurses & especially new nurses to ensure they become comfortable & confident in the care they provide. If you ask my nurses “What is working well at work?” they will tell you “It’s my team & the teamwork that gets me through each day”. Being a small unit specializing in orthopedics almost all of our patients have a very similar plan of care & daily routine that provides our nurses with the ability to have a systematic workflow throughout their shift. Our unit works closely with three orthopedic surgical groups that always have genuinely dedicated Nurse Practitioners & Physician Assistants on site or easily accessible enhancing the care we can provide to our patients in a timely manner without impeding our workflow. As a manager, I am hands on with patient care & assisting with any needs, flexible & easy to talk to. Lastly, we enjoy listening to music & having pizza parties frequently to enhance our positivity & fuel our motivation.

Requirements

• ADN required, BSN or higher preferred.
• VA or compact state RN license in good standing.
