Registered Nurse (RN) –School Nursing

Cedar Springs, MI | Starting at $48,000 annually | Benefits Eligible | Summers Off

Why Nurses Choose HealthBar

Healthcare doesn't have to mean long shifts, unpredictable schedules, or rushing from patient to patient.

At HealthBar, our school nurses build meaningful relationships, have the time to deliver thoughtful care, and receive ongoing support from an experienced clinical leadership team.

Our nurses choose school nursing because it offers:

• Predictable daytime hours
• Nights, weekends, holidays, and summers off
• Time to build meaningful relationships instead of managing high patient volumes
• A collaborative team environment
• Clinical support when you need it
• The opportunity to make a lasting impact on students and families

Why This Role Is Different

School nursing is different from almost every other nursing role.

Instead of caring for dozens of patients during a shift, you'll have the opportunity to provide thoughtful, relationship-based care in one school community. You'll become a trusted healthcare resource for students, families, and school staff while helping students safely participate in their education.

Every day is meaningful, collaborative, and predictable... As predictable as nursing can get. You'll work alongside teachers, therapists, administrators, and families to support student health while enjoying a schedule that leaves your evenings, weekends, holidays, and summers free.

This position primarily supports a student with ongoing medical needs while also serving as a valued member of the school's health team when additional support is needed.

This role follows the school-year calendar, meaning you have:

• Summers off

• Evenings and weekends off
