Registered Nurse - NICU

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is a Level 3 NICU with a 49-bed unit for newborns born prematurely, needing specialized treatment, or are sick.

An in-house neonatologist is available around the clock to provide the most advanced evidence-based care for our tiniest population. Babies in the NICU are cared for in state-of-the-art Giraffe Omni Beds, which are specialized isolettes and infant warmers all-in-one, reducing stress on the baby. We take babies from approximately 23 weeks gestation to post-term babies.

This position provides optimal patient care utilizing knowledge and skills within the nursing process. The incumbent is accountable for individualized patient outcomes over an entire episode of care. The incumbent provides comprehensive nursing services to newborns, children, adolescents, adults, and geriatric patients, including their families/caregivers.

We have a neonatal transport team that brings infants with serious illnesses, injuries, or complications to Renown Children's Hospital from outlying communities within a 200-mile radius of Reno. Ambulances and planes equipped with neonatal care equipment transport the team to rural areas to begin treatment and bring the child to the safety and comfort of Renown's NICU. Candidates must have 1.5-2 years of NICU experience to apply.

We cover all northern Nevada areas, including Lake Tahoe, Tonopah, as well as the Oregon and Idaho borders.
