Your impact as a registered nurse (RN)

We're looking for decisive, fast-moving, mission-driven nurses to provide essential medical care and lead with purpose. If you thrive in a fast-paced setting, love solving problems on the go, and value autonomy with a clear sense of mission—this is your opportunity.

What you'll do

• Own the patient intake process: Conduct focused assessments, collect vitals, and complete drug screenings quickly and thoroughly.
• Drive timely, accurate documentation: Generate and audit Medication Administration Records (MARs); support MAT protocols and medication education.
• Support and adapt: Flex between patient care and light administrative tasks, assisting wherever needed to keep operations running.
• Act fast and follow through: Monitor patient progress and flag concerns early. Your urgency and follow-up matter.
• Lead with confidence: Bring clarity, action, and consistency to a multidisciplinary care team focused on outcomes.

We're looking for someone who is...

• A decisive doer — you take initiative, follow through, and move at pace
• A team collaborator — while independent, you play well with others and keep communication flowing
• A natural problem-solver — you assess, respond, and adapt quickly in changing environments
• An empathetic realist — you care deeply but maintain boundaries and prioritize clinical impact

Qualifications

• Current Oklahoma LPN or RN license (or ability to obtain)
• Previous experience in behavioral health, detox, or addiction treatment strongly preferred
• Familiarity with Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) is a plus
• Strong communication, triage, and time-management skills
• Must obtain First Aid & CPR certification within 30 days of hire
