Med Surg (RN)

Our organization has implemented a strict attendance policy to ensure the highest quality of care for our patient population. Any RN contractor who is absent from a scheduled shift or arrives more than 20 minutes late for their scheduled shift three times will face immediate termination. Exceptions for situations such as communicable diseases or hospitalizations will be reviewed with appropriate documentation.

This policy will take effect on June 1, 2024.
