Job Description
We have partnered with a highly respected community hospital in New York. This is a beautiful location for those who enjoy the outdoors. We are working to help them identify an Assistant Director of Med/Surg. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Nurse Manager, Assistant Nurse Manager, or emerging nursing leader looking to step into executive leadership.
Reporting directly to the CNO, you'll join a health system affiliated with a University, combining the feel of a community hospital with the resources of a larger academic network.
In this role you'll:
- Lead daily operations of a busy Medical/Surgical service
- Mentor and develop nursing leaders and staff
- Drive quality, patient safety, and employee engagement
- Partner closely with the CNO on operational initiatives
- Help foster a culture built on accountability and empowerment
There are several units comprising 26-32 beds, supported by a 24/7 supervisor, 29 FTE, an awesome culture focused on empowerment and accountability. Excellent patient satisfaction scores and a high focus on employee engagement.
We're looking for:
? BSN required; MSN preferred or in progress
? Progressive acute care nursing leadership experience
? Strong communication and team-building skills
? Passion for coaching and developing others
What makes this opportunity stand out is the culture. Leadership believes in empowering leaders—not micromanaging them. The organization has strong employee engagement, excellent quality outcomes, and Assistant Directors participate in a shared call rotation supported by 24/7 Nursing Supervisors.
The region offers an outstanding quality of life with beautiful lakes, wineries, outdoor recreation, charming communities, and a lower cost of living than many parts of New York. Relocation assistance is available.
