REGISTERED NURSE/INTENSIVE CARE UNIT

Longmont United Hospital in Longmont, CO is dedicated to making our community a better place to live, work, and raise a family -- one patient at a time.
That dedication transcends our programs, treatments, services and our staff. It means providing our patients with extraordinary, sophisticated and state of the art care close to your home or workplace with unique treatment options that honor the whole person and enhance the healing experience.

Being an exceptional workplace is one of our strategic initiatives.
Our vision is to be the healthcare organization where the best nurses and staff are employed, where the best physicians practice, and where people choose to receive care.

At Longmont, we are a Planetree affiliate, which we feel puts us apart from other hospitals. This vision is to create a healing setting in which values such as compassion, comfort, esthetic beauty, dignity, shared knowledge and the freedom of informed choice enjoyed the same standing as technology. The program that grew out of that vision was named after the tree under which Hippocrates was believed to have taught his students.

At Longmont United Hospital, we have integrated our modern technologies with the Planetree Care Model. Our care is patient-centered rather than provider-focused, and we are committed to improving medical care from the patient's perspective. Our philosophy empowers patients and families through information and education, and encourages"healing partnerships" with our physicians and staff. In addition, our philosophy recognizes the importance of architectural and interior design which are home-like, barrier free, support patient dignity and encourage family participation in care.

Bringing your career to Longmont United Hospital brings you more than recognition, stability and an excellent package of benefits and compensation. It also brings you the intense satisfaction of making a difference in the communities we serve.
