About the Unit

The Nursing Resource Pool (NRP) is made up of a variety of Nurses (ICU nurses, Progressive-care nurses, and Medical/Surgical nurses), Nursing Aides, Desk Secretaries, and Patient Observation Aides (Patient Sitters). This staff is like the lifeguards of the hospital. Each day and night, the staff are deployed throughout the hospital to help to rescue all areas that find themselves short-staffed. This is a fantastic learning environment for those who are in school as it allows staff to care for nearly every kind of patient in different units that’s offers different care depending on the area that the staff is assigned. The NRP staff rarely gets bored, because the types of patients they care for changes nearly every day. The patients, families, and staff of the hospital all greatly value and appreciate the help and expertise that the NRP staff provide to them. The NRP department offers more flexibility with schedule that will cater to your personal and family needs and work-life balance.
