If you’re ready to jump in, make a real difference, and bring your A-game (and maybe a little humor) to the floor, we want YOU!

Why Choose Universal HCR?

• Flexible Work Options: Full-time, travel gigs, or short-term contracts—we have a fit for your lifestyle (and yes, we know you’ve got a life outside work).
• Team Spirit: We work hard and play harder. Expect team camaraderie, support, and maybe the occasional breakroom joke contest!

Key Responsibilities:

• Patient Care: Provide direct patient care, from administering medication to wound care and everything in between. You’re the ER’s first line of defense!
• Vital Signs Monitoring: Keep a close watch on patients’ vitals—temperature, pulse, respiration, and blood pressure—keeping the team informed of any changes.
• Assist with Emergency Procedures: Be ready to jump in and assist with emergency interventions, intubations, and more. In the ER, no two shifts are the same!
• Patient Triage Support: Help with patient triage by assessing injuries and symptoms and determining the urgency of care needed.
• Collaborate with the Healthcare Team: You’ll work closely with RNs, physicians, and other healthcare staff to ensure the best care for every patient.
• Documentation: Keep detailed records of patient care and any changes in condition. Communication is key in a fast-paced ER environment.
• Patient Comfort: Provide emotional support for patients and families in stressful situations. Sometimes a reassuring smile is just as important as medical care.
• Transport Patients: Safely move patients to different areas of the hospital when needed, ensuring comfort and care along the way.

Qualifications:

• Current Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN) certification in California (your golden ticket to care!).
• ER experience is a big plus, but we’re also happy to train LVNs who are passionate and quick learners.
