What we do is sacred work - grounded in love and intention for the other person. - Gerald Bryant, Executive Vice President of Nursing, CNO/COO

LCMHS is committed to continuous improvements and excellence in patient care. Here’s a few ways we demonstrate our commitment to excellence through nursing opportunities:

Evidence-Based Nurse Staff

We believe nurse staffing should reflect the national recommendations for a specialty, nursing experience, nursing skill mix and patient acuity/activity.

Experience Memorial

“Experience Memorial” is more than just a recruitment slogan. It’s a value demonstrated through the care we provide for our patients and our commitment to the community that begins and ends with engaged employees. Through encouraged employee feedback, Memorial has established a benefits package that reflects what is needed for you to take care of your family. From volunteerism, reduced co-pays, childcare benefits, and even pet insurance, the Memorial benefits package has something for everyone. Click here to learn more about Experience Memorial.

Flexible Schedules

Whether you are looking for a full time or part time role in nursing, if you are an experienced nurse, we will work to find the schedule that fits your needs and life.

Healthy Workforce and Wellness Programs

Memorial recognizes that part of our mission is to create a workplace that offers professional growth and opportunity. Our ongoing wellness initiatives work towards creating an environment that fosters respect, dignity, and diversity. Read more about this in our annual report below.

Internships/Fellowships

In addition to the residency program, internships are designed to help new nurses enter the field. Fellowships are designed for experienced nurses who are changing specialties.

New Grad Residency Program

A one year “transition to practice” evidence-based program is designed to support the novice nurse to reach the highest level of the profession with a curriculum focused on quality, safety, communication, self-care and mindfulness.

Nursing Safety

Memorial believes that violence is not a part of the job. Recently, Memorial has increased its violence prevention measures throughout the health system, improved reporting measures and a culture that supports and encourages nursing staff to report violence and communicates to the public that violence against healthcare staff is not tolerated.

Shared Governance

The organization-wide council infrastructure guarantees that nursing leaders have a true voice in nursing practices and operations. Our philosophy is to make sure we have the right bedside leaders at the table to help make decisions. Read more about this in our Annual Report below.
