Do you have a heart for community care?

At Easterseals PORT Health (ESPH), our mission is rooted in empowering individuals and strengthening communities. We’re seeking a Registered Nurse (RN) to join our Assertive Community Treatment (ACT) Team—a collaborative, multidisciplinary team providing life-changing care to individuals living with serious mental illness and substance use challenges in their own communities.

This isn’t traditional nursing—it’s transformative, community-based care that makes a lasting difference.

As a Registered Nurse on our ACT Team, you’ll provide direct, compassionate, and holistic care to clients where they live and thrive. You’ll be part of a supportive team that meets daily, shares insights, and works together to create lasting stability for each individual served.

You will:

• Deliver essential nursing care, including psychotropic medication administration and monitoring as prescribed by the team psychiatrist.
• Conduct nursing assessments and interventions while monitoring for medical issues and potential side effects.
• Collaborate with the team psychiatrist to create, update, and manage medication protocols, policies, and procedures.
• Assess and document medication effectiveness, potential complications, and any side effects.
• Develop personalized strategies to promote medication adherence and overall wellness.
• Contribute to individualized treatment plans and participate in daily ACT team meetings.
• Provide on-call crisis intervention services as part of a rotating schedule.
• Document all client interactions and care in the Welligent EMR system.

Community Impact: Deliver care directly in homes, shelters, and community spaces—helping individuals build stability and independence.
Collaborative, Holistic Care: Work alongside therapists, housing specialists, and peer supports to address the full spectrum of health needs.
Patient Advocacy: Go beyond traditional nursing by empowering and educating clients to take charge of their well-being.
Professional Growth: Gain ongoing training and development within a mission-driven organization that values your dedication and growth.

We intentionally support your professional goals, personal well-being, and financial security through a robust benefits package:

• Salary: $70,000 – $85,000 annually (based on experience)
• Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• 403(b) Retirement Plan

• Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) qualifying employer

• Active, unrestricted RN license to practice in North Carolina
• Experience in behavioral health or mental health preferred
