RN - OUTPATIENT

RN - OUTPATIENT

Where care and skill move nursing forward.

Being a RN - OUTPATIENT, at UNM Hospital offers opportunities for professional growth through specialized training and a Clinical Advancement Program, the ability to work at New Mexico's only Level 1 Trauma Center, and involvement in a supportive academic medical center environment with a diverse patient population from throughout the state and from surrounding states. Many of the services provided at UNMH are the only services available in the state. We work in a busy, fast paced environment with students from many disciplines. Our Behaviors of Excellence outline the characteristics we expect in a successful candidate.

You will be part of a team that collaborates to provide patient-centered care and work with a dedicated community of healthcare professionals.

Nurses are recognized for excellence through programs like the DAISY Award for nurses who go above and beyond for patients and their families.

You can help improve nursing practice by participating in shared governance, councils, and task forces.

As an academic medical center, we have students from a variety of disciplines and you will have the opportunity to teach as well as learn and grow professionally. We have been recognized nationally for our educational, professional growth and development opportunities.

UNMH as a whole has supported my role by helping mold me into the nurse I am today because of the educational aspect of the teaching hospital. I believe that is very important, especially as a new nurse or a new graduate.
