CHI St. Vincent North in Sherwood opened in October 1999. The hospital offers private rooms and serves the community with 24 hour emergency service. More than 200 coworkers and physicians at the facility provide medical care for Sherwood, North Little Rock, Jacksonville and surrounding communities. We share the campus with CHI St. Vincent Rehabilitation Hospital. In 2019 we relocated the Arkansas Neurosciences Institute from the Infirmary in Little Rock to our North campus. We have experienced, compassionate physicians and nurses on staff in our emergency room who specialize in emergency medicine. We offer heart services to include care for ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), which is caused by a blockage of blood flow to the heart and requires timely treatment.

We want our patients to be as comfortable as possible and believe that starts with basic patient care. We have the best team of nursing assistants in our facilities and now we need you. Our Patient Care Technicians' not only collect patient information, but they also help them take their medications on time, assist with meals, attend to personal needs, and change wound dressings as needed. They play a vital role as a liaison between our patients and their care teams. If you are interested in joining this type of healthcare community, we want to talk to you.

What you'll do:

• Contributes to the assessment of the health status of patients
• Communicates pertinent patient information to appropriate members of the treatment team with direction of the Charge Nurse
• Assist patients/families with light housekeeping duties such as assisting with meals or changing bed linens
• Reports any changes in a patient's condition to the Charge Nurse
• Must have ability to work effectively and collaboratively in a diverse and multi-cultural environment.

Education: High School diploma, GED, Metropolitan Test or equivalent; (EMT or Paramedic acceptable for ED or OP areas) or RN or LPN licensure upon entry to the position or evidence of the fundamentals of nursing and one semester of clinical practice in an RN school. Certified Nursing Assistant certification or successful completion of CHI Patient Care Technician Program.

Experience: No experience required.

Physical Requirements: Must possess ability to walk and stand for extended periods of time, ability to lift 50 lbs./transfer patients and equipment. Pulling, pushing, and reaching will be required in the day-to-day operation. Must possess ability to see, hear, smell, and speak. The individual in this position will be exposed to inside/outside environmental conditions. There is also potential for exposure to respiratory hazards, blood borne pathogens, chemical hazards, and body fluids. For positions in the ED: Ability to physically restrain, de-escalate and protect patients, staff, visitors, etc. when necessary utilizing training techniques.

Skills: Current Basic Life Support for Healthcare Provider from American Heart Association. Must possess demonstrated communication skills, excellent customer service skills and ability to deal effectively with multi-disciplinary team members/patients/significant others and physicians.
