Responsibilities
At some point in our lives, most of us will be admitted for surgery. You remember this every time you interview and assess a patient prior to surgery, whether their procedure will be minor or life changing. It’s important to you to listen and to educate them with optimism and compassion. You are their patient advocate, and their safety and comfort are your priority. Today’s fast pace was a challenge, but you and your team were able to deliver above-and-beyond levels of care. Days like this, your dedication and passion really come through.
Maybe this year you’ll be named Nurse of the Year. That’s one of the rewards programs that Dignity Health offers, along with the Total Rewards program. Dignity Health knows nurses can experience high stress on the job, and so they encourage supportive leadership, strong teamwork and plenty of opportunity for you to nurture your life outside work. Many of the surgical areas operate Monday through Friday, so you regularly have weekends free. And Dignity Health benefits support you financially and physically, with an eye toward creating a happy, healthy future for you and your family.
