Job Title RN - Trauma Stepdown Location Cleveland Facility Cleveland Clinic Main Campus Department

Job Code F00165 Shift Day/Night Rotation Schedule 7:00am-7:00pm/7:00am-7:00pm Job Summary

Job Details Join Cleveland Clinic’s Main Campus where research and surgery are advanced, technology is leading-edge, patient care is world class and caregivers are family. Here, you will work alongside a passionate and dedicated team, receive endless support and appreciation, and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.

Be part of something new at H62/H63, a 14-bed Trauma Stepdown Unit at Cleveland Clinic Main Campus that will play an integral role in the growth of the emerging trauma program. This is an exciting opportunity for Registered Nurses to help shape a brand-new unit, build a strong team culture, and deliver exceptional care to patients throughout their recovery. The unit will initially care for a stepdown population before transitioning to its long-term role as a dedicated Trauma Stepdown unit.

H62/H63 offers an environment where nurses can make an immediate impact while developing specialized expertise in trauma and acute care. You’ll provide specialized care for trauma patients transitioning from the Trauma ICU who no longer require ICU-level care but continue to need higher-acuity nursing care and close monitoring. With the opportunity to help establish the foundation of a new unit and grow alongside an evolving program, this is more than a nursing role. It’s an opportunity to be part of something that is just getting started and helping shape what comes next.

A caregiver in this position works a day/night rotation from 7:00 a.m. - 7:30 p.m. and 7:00 p.m.-7:30 a.m. with every other weekend and holiday requirement.
