ED Nurse

Overview

CHI Franciscan and Virginia Mason are now united to build the future of patient-centered care across the Pacific Northwest. That means a seamlessly connected system offering quality care close to home. From basic health needs to the most complex, highly specialized care, our patients can count on us to meet their needs with convenient access to the region's most prestigious experts and innovative treatments and technologies.

While you're busy impacting the healthcare industry, we'll take care of you with benefits that may include health/dental/vision, FSA, matching retirement plans, paid vacation, adoption assistance, annual bonus eligibility, and more!

As an ER Nurse at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Enumclaw, Wa, you'll be the first touchpoint to the people in our community during health emergencies.

No two days in emergency nursing are ever the same. You're a multitasker who can react quickly as you'll prioritize patients based on their medical necessity while you're providing emergency triage to others. As part of our ER team, you'll partner with an experienced clinical team to deliver stabilizing care to our patients by performing IV starts, foley catheter insertions, or aiding providers with chest tube insertions.

To thrive as an ER nurse, you should exhibit teamwork, professionalism, critical thinking skills, and a willingness to take on additional projects. More than anything, you should be energetic and motivated to provide quality care to all of our patients, maintaining their dignity at every step.

St. Elizabeth is a 25-bed Rural Community Hospital located in the town of Enumclaw, Washington. We are part of the Virginia Mason Franciscan health system in the Pacific Northwest, offering a seamless connected system that offers quality care close to home.
