Join the Team That's Building Something New
Opportunities to join a brand-new unit don't come around often.
The Observation Unit at Deaconess Midtown is one of our newest inpatient units, offering nurses the unique chance to help shape the culture, grow alongside the team, and be part of something exciting from the beginning. This 23-bed unit provides short-term care for patients requiring further evaluation, treatment, and diagnosis, with most patients transitioning to admission or discharge within 8–24 hours.
With a wide variety of patient conditions and remote telemetry capabilities, nurses develop strong assessment skills, critical thinking, and clinical judgment in a fast-paced environment where every shift brings something different. Daily collaboration with physicians, case management, therapy, and social work creates a highly team-oriented atmosphere focused on delivering exceptional patient care.
Whether you're a new graduate or an experienced nurse, you'll find a supportive team, structured orientation, mentorship opportunities, and the rare opportunity to leave your mark on a growing unit.
Be part of a new chapter at Deaconess Midtown and help define what excellence looks like from day one.
