UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh is hiring full-time Professional Staff Nurses for the Operating Room.
This role offers flexible scheduling, with the option of three 12-hour shifts or four 10-hour shifts based on your needs. As a perioperative nurse, you'll advocate for patients and serve primarily as a circulating nurse in the OR, with comprehensive training provided.
The OR is a supportive, collaborative, and highly specialized environment-ideal for nurses who enjoy focusing on one patient at a time, working closely with a multidisciplinary team, and utilizing advanced technology in a fast-paced setting.
UPMC Children's Hospital OR provides care for patients ranging from neonates to young adults across a wide range of surgical specialties, including General, ENT, Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, Plastics, Transplant, Ophthalmology, and Genitourinary procedures. With 14 state-of-the-art operating rooms, the department operates 24/7 as a Level 1 Trauma and Transplant Center, performing approximately 42 cases daily and 12,000 annually.
The OR offers:
+ Self-scheduling with flexible shift options (3 12s or 4 10s)
+ Staggered orientation and structured perioperative training for nurses new to the OR
+ A supportive, team-oriented environment that promotes autonomy and professional growth
+ Exposure to leading-edge surgical technology and innovation
UPMC is committed to investing in nurses-financially, personally, and professionally-from day one. Whether you're paying back student loans or advancing your career, UPMC is here to support your success.
Here's how we support our nurses:
+ UPMC's Monthly Loan Repayment Program for first-time nursing graduates: up to $20,000 paid over three years ( _flex full-time roles may be prorated_ )
+ Up to five and a half weeks of Paid Time Off annually, plus seven paid holidays
+ Dedicated career ladder opportunities, including a newly enhanced nursing career ladder that rewards experience, education, and growth
+ Tuition reimbursement of up to $6,000 per year at any accredited institution for employees and their dependents, plus additional education discounts (including no-cost RN-BSN/MSN options)
The Professional Staff Nurse role is a valued step within UPMC's nursing career ladder, with clear pathways for advancement. Salary is determined based on education and nursing experience.
Responsibilities include:
+ Participate in unit-based quality improvement efforts and contribute to enhancing patient care, safety, and satisfaction
+ Apply the nursing process using Relationship-Based Care to deliver holistic, patient-centered care
+ Collaborate with the care team to develop and communicate patient care plans, ensuring high-quality documentation and continuity of care
+ Build strong, professional relationships with colleagues while fostering a respectful, inclusive work environment
+ Engage in shared governance, professional development, and continuous improvement efforts
+ Educate patients, families, and team members, and support onboarding of new staff and students
+ Perform scrub role responsibilities (required for RNs hired on or after July 17, 2023)
This is a great opportunity to join a high-performing OR team where you can specialize, grow your skills, and make a meaningful impact on pediatric patients and their families.
