Job Description
District Registered Nurse
Starting at $55,000 annually | Lowell, MI | Part-Time
Schedule
Start Date: August 3, 2026
- Monday – Friday, following school hours
- 37.5 hours/week | .67 FTE
- August - June, following the school year calendar
Why This Role Is Different
This is not a hospital shift or chaotic urgent care.
As a District Nurse within HealthBar’s School Nursing Program, you’ll provide comprehensive, thoughtful nursing care to a defined student population — with predictable hours, autonomy, and the ability to build meaningful relationships in your school community.
You’ll follow the school-year calendar:
- Summers off
- No nights
- No weekends
- No holidays
This is a clinical role with balance built in.
What Your Days Look Like
You will:
- Provide medical training and delegation for school staff (medication administration, chronic disease support, CPR/First Aid, MERT)
- Support chronic disease management (allergies, asthma, diabetes, seizures, mental health)
- Write and implement individualized plans of care
- Respond to medical emergencies and coordinate Medical Emergency Response Teams (MERT)
- Collaborate with school administration, teachers, PT/OT, speech, social work, CNAs, and fellow RNs
- Participate in 504 and IEP meetings
You’ll also provide both routine and complex nursing care, including:
- Medication administration
- Assessing and treating illnesses and injuries
- Specialized nursing care as needed (tracheostomy/ventilator support, G-tube feedings, catheter care, ostomies)
- Public health education
- Provider consultations
What You Won’t Be Dealing With
- No hospital shift rotations
- No 12-hour nights
- No holiday coverage
- No weekend requirements
- No unpredictable overtime
You’ll work a steady, school-based schedule that allows you to fully unplug during breaks.

This Role Is a Great Fit If…
You’re an RN who wants to practice meaningful, independent nursing in a school setting — while maintaining work-life balance and having your summers back.
