RN/LPNs Wanted (Spokane/Coeur d'Alene) Full-time

at in Spokane (Published at 24-02-2010)


Experience all that distinguishes the initials R.N. In the network of Navy Health Care, thereÂ’s no telling how far an extra shift can take you. And whether youÂ’re an established nursing professional or just starting out, there are many exciting, challenging and rewarding opportunities waiting for you as a Navy Reserve Nurse.

In the Navy Reserve Nurse Corps, you will be able to focus on your passion for caregiving. Under your care, youÂ’ll tend to an injured child whose home was swept out to sea. Or treat dozens of service members waiting to receive wide-ranging levels of personal care in your triage. YouÂ’ll have the ability to make decisions that help to treat not only the patients but help to manage the chaos, all within your comfort zone.

Serving in the Navy Reserve, you can expand upon your role as a nursing professional and make a difference in the world, all while earning an impressive benefits package that includes available sign-on bonuses, loan repayment assistance, specialty pay, educational incentives, travel and more.

This is not your typical emergency room, your average office or your local clinic. It is a brief glimpse into Navy Nursing — and a place where you can do so much more.

In the Navy Reserve, every nurse is a respected Officer on a renowned team of specialists — anchoring one of the largest health-care systems on earth. Here, you’ll work with the latest tools and technologies at cutting-edge facilities stateside and abroad, merging the best aspects of civilian and military nursing to gain expertise and versatility that are unmatched. Primarily, you’ll look after the medical needs of the brave men and women who serve our country, their families and other beneficiaries who have served. You may also fill in for deployed Active Duty Navy Nurses, working mainly at locations that are typically close to your home.

Navy Reserve Nurses go beyond the scope of traditional care, treating thousands of civilians globally each year. While serving, you work with health care teams and aid organizations, mentoring health care workers in host nations thankful to receive humanitarian aid.

Navy Nursing stands at the forefront of the field, with exciting opportunities in more than a dozen clinical areas. From critical care to neurosurgery to pediatrics, youÂ’ll have many ways to gain elite credentials and status, while educating those around you. You will have the opportunity to mentor other health care providers, instilling them with a sense of confidence, as well as inspiring yourself. Ultimately you will be upholding a proud heritage of excellence.
Benefits and Financial Offers
Practicing Nurses

In the Navy Reserve Nurse Corps, you’ll receive a first-rate benefits package — including your choice of any one of these three generous financial offers:

1. Up to $50,000 in nursing school loan repayment assistance

2. Specialty pay: up to $30,000 for nurses or up to $75,000 for nurse anesthetists

3. An immediate one-time sign-on bonus of up to $10,000
Nursing Graduate Students

If you join the Navy Reserve Nurse Corps while enrolled in a postgraduate nursing program, you can get:

1. A monthly stipend of $1,992 while completing your education program

2. Plus up to $50,000 in nursing school loan repayment assistance
Training

With flexible training options, Navy Reserve Nurses can comfortably balance civilian and military schedules. You can maintain your own life, all while enriching both with the rewarding work you do for others. And you’ll do this serving as few as two days each month and two weeks each year — with opportunities for additional service and pay.

If your specialty area lies in anesthesia, operating rooms, medical/surgical or critical care nursing, your skills are highly valued in the Navy Reserve, and your service will be rewarded accordingly.
