Our tiered acuity model gives nurses the opportunity to build advanced clinical skills by caring for patients requiring therapies such as BiPAP, Optiflow, cardiac infusions, and insulin drips.

Following CoxHealth's mission, vision, values, and commitment to evidence-based practice, we are dedicated to delivering outstanding patient outcomes while fostering professional growth, lifelong learning, and career advancement for every member of our team.
