Registered Nurse Per Diem-NICU

The Level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Nemours is growing, and we are seeking experienced nurses to join our nursing team! Per diem openings are currently available, which includes a minimum of 48 hours scheduled time within a six-week schedule. 

In the NICU at Nemours Children’s Hospital-Delaware, we care for the most complex & critically ill newborns, including premature and term neonates requiring ventilatory support, surgical repair of complex congenital or acquired conditions, and treatment to reverse or slow a disease process, such as ECMO, dialysis, and therapeutic hypothermia. Specialized members of our nursing team are trained to insert central line catheters and attend deliveries of high-risk, complex neonates in the Advanced Delivery Unit. 

The NICU has recently expanded to care for up to 38 patients in our brand-new single room unit. While we provide world class neonatal care, we maintain the intimate and personalized attention of a smaller hospital. Our leadership team and educators provide around-the-clock support and are committed to your professional growth, satisfaction, and well-being.

Requirements:

• Prior Level III-IV NICU experience required
• RNC-NIC or pediatric nursing certification strongly preferred
• American Heart Association BLS required
