Emergency Department Fellowship RN

UCHealth Greeley Hospital Emergency Department & Pediatric Observation Unit

The UCHealth Greeley Hospital Emergency Department (GH ED) and Pediatric Observation Unit provide care for a diverse patient population in a fast-paced community hospital setting serving Northern Colorado. Our department cares for adult and pediatric patients across the acuity spectrum, from minor illnesses and injuries to critically ill patients requiring rapid stabilization, resuscitation, and transfer to higher levels of care when needed.

In addition to emergency services, our nurses support a Pediatric Observation Unit that provides short-stay care for pediatric patients requiring ongoing monitoring, treatment, and evaluation. Nurses caring for this population must be comfortable transitioning between emergency and observation-level care while maintaining a family-centered approach.

GH ED nurses are expected to function independently, communicate effectively, and work collaboratively with physicians, APPs, respiratory therapists, EMS, pharmacists, technicians, and inpatient teams. Successful team members are adaptable, accountable, and thrive in an environment where patient conditions, priorities, and volumes can change rapidly.

• Adult medical and surgical emergencies
• Cardiac and stroke patients
• Trauma and orthopedic injuries
• Respiratory emergencies
• Sepsis and critical care patients
• Behavioral health emergencies
• Pediatric illnesses and injuries

Our team prides itself on collaboration, accountability, and patient-centered care. We seek nurses who are clinically strong, adaptable, and committed to providing exceptional care to every patient and family. Leaders are actively engaged in department operations, staff support one another during high-volume periods, and teamwork is essential to our success.

What makes us unique: GH nurses have the opportunity to care for both emergency and pediatric observation patients, providing a broad clinical experience while working alongside a highly collaborative multidisciplinary team. We value flexibility, professionalism, mutual respect, and a commitment to delivering safe, high-quality care every day.
