Job Description

Registered Nurse – School Nursing

Godfrey Lee Public Schools | Wyoming, MI | $40,000–$43,000 annually

Schedule

• Monday – Friday, 5 days per week
• Approximately 9:30 AM – 2:30 PM
• 25 hours/week | 0.45 FTE
• August - June, following school year

Start Date: August 3, 2026

Why This Role Is Different

This is not a hospital shift or chaotic urgent care.

As a School Nurse within HealthBar’s School Nursing Program, you’ll provide comprehensive, thoughtful nursing care to a defined student population — with predictable hours, real 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

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
• 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.

Compensation

$40,000–$43,000 annually (based on experience)

25 hours/week, 37 weeks (following school schedule)

Benefits

Employees receive access to HealthBar's benefit offerings, including:

• Direct access to a clinical provider (you + dependents)
• Discounted care through HealthBar's network
• Paid Time Off
• Biannual profit sharing
• Employee 401(k) contributions

Yeah, you read that right.

This Role Is a Great Fit If…

You enjoy working with children, building relationships, and supporting student success through compassionate, patient-centered care.

You'll thrive in this role if you're kind, adaptable, and able to work effectively with a wide variety of personalities. This position is ideal for a nurse who can balance independence with collaboration and enjoys being a trusted resource for students, families, teachers, and staff.

• Pediatric, school nursing, acute care, ER, ICU, med-surg, public health, or related nursing experience preferred
