Job description

Assistant Nurse Manager – 4N Medical Unit

Full-Time, 40 hrs/week, afternoons/evenings

Position is primarily evening shift with flexibility required to support 24-hour patient care operations. Hours may vary based on departmental needs and include weekends, holidays, rotating off-shift coverage, and on-call responsibilities. Serves as a unit-based resource supporting the RN Nurse Manager in maintaining safe, effective operations and continuity of care across all shifts.

Summa Health System – Akron Campus

A dynamic medical unit caring for a blended-acuity patient population, with a strong focus on cardiac telemetry and acute-on-chronic conditions. Nurses care for patients with a wide range of medical needs - from stable, routine medical management to complex patients requiring close monitoring, frequent assessment, and rapid clinical intervention. The unit provides valuable experience with cardiac rhythms, chest pain, heart failure, respiratory conditions, diabetes, renal disease, infection, and other complex medical diagnoses, while emphasizing early recognition of patient deterioration and timely escalation of care. Because patients often present with multiple comorbidities and changing clinical needs, nurses develop strong assessment, prioritization, and critical-thinking skills. This environment truly helps you become a well-rounded nurse - building versatility, clinical judgment, adaptability, and confidence across a broad spectrum of patient conditions. It’s an excellent setting for nurses who want to strengthen their foundational skills, become comfortable managing competing priorities, and develop the ability to care for whatever walks through the door.

Unit Size: 30-bed unit

Target Nurse-to-Patient Ratio: 1:5 to 1:6 * subject to change based on census numbers and patient care needs
