Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering for new graduate nurses who want a structured transition into orthopedic/total-joint surgical nursing at VHC Health. It is not a fit for clinicians seeking non-clinical or remote work.

Who should apply

New graduate RNs or BSN students graduating before spring 2027, especially those with ortho, med-surg, or surgical clinical rotations and an interest in total joint replacement care.

CV angle

Frame clinical rotations and any med-surg/ortho experience around post-operative assessment, pain management, mobility and fall prevention, wound care, patient education, and interdisciplinary handoffs. Emphasize RN licensure/NCLEX timeline and BLS if applicable, without inventing unit-specific experience.

Skills to highlight

  • Post-operative orthopedic nursing
  • Patient assessment and monitoring
  • Pain management
  • Mobility and fall prevention
  • Wound care and dressing changes
  • Patient education
  • Interdisciplinary collaboration
  • EHR documentation
