Position Highlights:

As a certified chest pain and stroke center we are excited to have the 3rd floor at the Bellevue Medical Center focus on the specialty care of cardiac and stroke patients. Nurse's will gain valuable experience learning to care for patients on cardiac drips, heart failure patients, and post stroke care. The unit also admits a mix of adult general medical and telemetry patients.

Although the Bellevue Medical Center has a small community feel you will gain valuable experience in caring for patients supported by the resources of a large Academic Medical Center.
