At Sheppard Pratt, nurses are behavioral healthcare superheroes.
Here, you not only have the opportunity to make a difference every day, but you have a strong team beside you, and an organization providing you with opportunities to grow in your career.
Sheppard Pratt is a leader in the field of psychiatric care. Our inpatient units cater to a wide variety of populations and diagnoses. You will be able to experience a variety of nursing positions and environments and find the right fit for you. And along the way, you’ll be supported by a team of world-class and knowledgeable professionals.
Our nurses love their patients. Psychiatric nursing goes beyond taking vitals and performing procedures. You’ll learn about your patients on a physical, mental, and emotional level. As you support them through their lowest moments and see them return to community care, you’ll be making an impact that lasts a lifetime.
Nurses meet patients where they are in their journey. We are focused on care when patients are at their most vulnerable. When someone is hospitalized, they are in need of help. It is very rewarding for me to be a catalyst for that help.
Psych nurses are the best of the best. They are:
The nurses who are up for a challenge
The nurses who are on their toes, at the ready
The nurses who contribute to a team wholly dedicated to doing good
The nurses who want to learn and grow
The nurses who are empowered to use their unique expertise and take action
The nurses who are compassionate
The nurses who have critical thinking skills
The nurses who are comfortable getting out of their comfort zone
Whether you are new to nursing, an experienced nurse interested in transitioning to psychiatric care, or a seasoned psychiatric nurse looking for a new opportunity, we have a place for you.
