This is not a hospital shift or chaotic urgent care.

As a School District Nurse within HealthBar’s School Nursing Program, you’ll provide comprehensive, thoughtful nursing care to a defined student population — with predictable hours, real autonomy, and the ability to build meaningful relationships in your school community.

You’ll follow the school-year calendar:

• Summers off
• No nights
• No weekends
• No holidays

This is a clinical role with balance built in.

You will:

• Provide medical training and delegation for school staff (medication administration, chronic disease support, CPR/First Aid, MERT)
• Support chronic disease management (allergies, asthma, diabetes, seizures, mental health)
• Write and implement individualized plans of care
• Respond to medical emergencies and coordinate Medical Emergency Response Teams (MERT)
• Collaborate with school administration, teachers, PT/OT, speech, social work, CNAs, and fellow RNs
• Participate in 504 and IEP meetings

You'll also provide both routine and complex nursing care, including:

• Medication administration
• Assessing and treating illnesses and injuries
• Specialized nursing care as needed
• Public health education
• Provider consultations

• No hospital shift rotations
• No 12-hour nights
• No holiday coverage
• No weekend requirements
• No unpredictable overtime

You'll work a steady, school-based schedule that allows you to fully unplug during breaks.

Starting at $45,000 annually (based on experience)

• Monday – Friday
• 8:30 AM – 2:30 PM
• Schedule follows the school calendar

Eligible employees receive access to HealthBar's benefit offerings, including:

Yeah, you read that right.

You enjoy working with children and want to build meaningful relationships within a school community.

You remain calm under pressure, can confidently take the lead during emergencies, and are comfortable supporting elementary-aged students with both routine and complex health needs. You'll thrive in this role if you're adaptable, collaborative, and passionate about helping students stay healthy, safe, and ready to learn.

We’d love to welcome everyone — but to practice safely and legally, we do need:

• Active, unrestricted Michigan RN license

• Pediatric, school nursing, acute care, ER, ICU, med-surg, public health, or related nursing experience preferred
