Registered Nurse (RN) - AMIkids WINGS Piedmont

WHY AMIkids?

AMIkids makes a positive difference in kids' lives every day. Many of our kids have faced challenges in school and are involved with the legal system; we are giving them the opportunity to turn their lives around. For over 50 years, we have encouraged kids to make positive changes in their lives.

We seek a Registered Nurse (RN) who is responsible for ensuring all AMIkids Program clients receive proper medical treatment as dictated by National, State, and Contracting Organization standards. If this "WHY" resonates with you, you may have a place on our AMIkids team as the Registered Nurse.
