is the perfect place to build your foundation or expand your clinical
expertise.

We're hiring a Clinic Registered Nurse – Women's Health Services,
where you'll provide comprehensive reproductive and preventive healthcare while
making a meaningful impact on the health and well-being of women throughout
Wake County.

Why Public Health Nursing?
If you're new to public health, think of it as nursing with a wider lens.
Instead of caring for one patient at a time, you'll improve the health of
entire communities. You'll be part of a mission-driven team committed to
ensuring every individual has access to high-quality, compassionate,
evidence-based care.

This role is ideal for nurses who:

  education, and triage skills

  interdisciplinary collaboration
• Enjoy developing long-term
  relationships with patients
• Are looking for professional
  growth through mentorship and ongoing education

Women's Health nursing offers a diverse and rewarding clinical experience
that extends far beyond routine office visits.

In this role, you will:

• Perform and interpret electronic fetal
  monitoring (non-stress tests)
• Support prenatal and postpartum
  patients through education, follow-up care, and coordination with
  obstetric providers.
• Conduct STI screening, testing,
  treatment, counseling, and partner services in accordance with state and
  public health guidelines.
• Administer immunizations,
  including HPV, Hepatitis B, Tdap, and other recommended vaccines while
  maintaining documentation in the North Carolina Immunization Registry
  (NCIR).
• Deliver patient-centered
  education on reproductive life planning, breastfeeding, healthy
  lifestyles, disease prevention, and women's wellness.
• Coordinate referrals for
  specialty services, diagnostic testing, and community resources while
  ensuring timely follow-up of abnormal results.
• Utilize electronic medical
  records and public health information systems to provide safe, accurate,
  and efficient patient care.
• Provide telephone and in-person
  nursing triage, strengthening your clinical judgment and decision-making
  skills with the support of experienced public health nurses.
• Collaborate with physicians,
  advanced practice providers, social workers, health educators, case
  managers, interpreters, and community organizations to provide
  comprehensive, coordinated care.
• Participate in quality
  improvement initiatives, clinical competency development, and emergency
  preparedness activities that strengthen public health services throughout
  the community.
