Description
Charge Nurse - Lead Care Where It Matters Most
At Redwood Coast Medical Services (RCMS), we don't just provide care-we show up for the communities that depend on us.
We're looking for a Charge Nurse with strong clinical skills and a team-focused mindset-someone who bring significant lead role experience in supporting a team of medical assistants, RN's and medical technicians, or demonstrated leadership roles in other clinical settings.
This is a hands-on position where you'll balance direct patient care with helping keep our clinics and urgent care operating in an organized and supportive setting for a great team of employees. You'll work closely with the Director of Clinical Operations, who leads day-to-day clinic operations of several departments in two locations, while you support clinical flow and serve as a key resource to the team.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Stay connected to patient care while building leadership experience
- Make a meaningful impact in an underserved rural community
- Is an essential leader in a collaborative, team-based care environment
- Be part of improving clinic flow and patient experience
What You'll Do
- Provide direct patient care, including nurse visits, immunizations, and Medicare Annual Wellness Visits
- Support daily clinical operations, program compliance, and safety in patient care
- Serve as a resource for nursing staff, medical assistants, and care teams
- Assist with onboarding and manage the training programs of clinical staff
- Partner with providers and population health teams to support preventive care and close care gaps
- Contribute to quality and patient safety initiatives
- Provide occasional clinical support in urgent care as needed
What You Bring
- Active California RN license
- Experience in primary care or community health (FQHC or rural health preferred), urgent care experience is a bonus for this role
- Strong clinical skills in preventive care, immunizations, and patient education
- Clear communication and a collaborative, problem-solving approach
- Willingness to take initiative, learn quickly, and step in to support the team
Experience supporting or mentoring others is essential for this role.
Why RCMS
- Mission-driven work serving a rural coastal community
- Supportive, team-oriented clinical environment
- Opportunity to grow into a leadership role while staying hands-on
Position Details
- Full-time (1.0 FTE), exempt, at will
- Reports to Director of Clinical Operations
If you're someone who takes pride in patient care and is ready to play a larger role in supporting your team, we'd love to connect.
