Charge Nurse Labor And Delivery

As a Charge Nurse at CHI Health Lakeside Hospital, you'll oversee a department of frontline nurses caring for patients. Your previous experience in acute care, NICU, or women's services adds tremendous value to our nursing team.

Every interaction is an opportunity to improve your understanding of a patient's needs, the needs of your nursing team, or the needs of your unit. You'll advocate for your fellow nurses as you support them in reaching their full potential, which aligns with your department's operational goals and objectives.

To thrive in this role, you need to be accountable and confident. You're an excellent communicator in 1:1 interactions and in front of groups. It's also important for you to be comfortable holding tough conversations, as you are responsible for the performance of your people and your unit.
