We are looking for capable, patient-focused Registered Nurses (RNs) and Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) to join our collaborative 4-nurse medical team for the 2026 summer season. This is a pure staff nursing role focused on clinical excellence, day-to-day triage, and community engagement. The ideal candidate is naturally organized, level-headed during high-energy camp activities, clear in their clinical decision-making, and excited to spend the summer living and working in an active, mission-driven community.
