The Opportunity

Position Summary:

Reporting directly to the Director of Care, the Registered Nurse (RN) is a regulated member of the interprofessional health care team who is responsible for completing comprehensive client assessments, developing and implementing client plans of care that address physical, psychological, emotional, social, behavioural, and recovery-oriented needs.

co-occurring conditions, and significant psychosocial challenges.
