Reid & Associates has been engaged to recruit a highly capable ER Nurse Manager for a respected community hospital affiliated with a major academic health system.

This is an opportunity to lead a 12-bed Emergency Department that sees approximately 85–100 visits per day, serving a primarily older, foothill-area population. The hospital delivers the personal touch of a community facility while benefiting from the stability, reputation, and resources of a nationally recognized academic medical center.

An ER expansion project is in active planning stages, making this an ideal time for a motivated leader to influence the future of the department.


Hospital & ER Snapshot

  • Licensed Beds: ~110 (ADC close to 100)

  • ER Beds: 12 (6 treatment bays)

  • Annual Volume: ~30,000 visits

  • Trauma Status: Non-designated

  • Population Served: Primarily older adults in a tight-knit foothill community

  • Growth: Emergency Department expansion pending final approval


Leadership & Culture

This role reports to an experienced, highly respected ER Director known for building strong teams, developing leaders, and fostering a supportive, values-driven culture. Their leadership style is centered on visibility, communication, and removing barriers so nurses can care for patients effectively.

The Chief Nursing Officer is described as deeply supportive of frontline staff, highly present in operations, and an advocate for nurses at every level. Executive leadership — including emergency medicine–trained leaders — is actively engaged in supporting ER operations and growth initiatives.

This team values collaboration, approachability, and leaders who are both hands-on and accountable.


Role Expectations

The ER Nurse Manager will:

  • Oversee day-to-day nursing operations in a 12-bed Emergency Department

  • Mentor, coach, and develop nursing staff and charge nurses

  • Drive improvements in patient satisfaction, throughput, and clinical quality

  • Support regulatory readiness and compliance (Joint Commission, DNV, CMS, state)

  • Partner closely with leadership on the planned ER expansion

  • Lead with visibility, support, and clear communication

This is a high-impact role for someone who takes ownership, builds trust quickly, and thrives in a community hospital environment with strong executive backing.


Ideal Candidate Profile

  • 5+ years progressive ER leadership (Charge RN → Manager)

  • Hands-on, steady, and resilient under pressure

  • Strong communicator who builds credibility with staff, physicians, and leadership

  • Demonstrated success improving patient experience and operational performance

  • Comfortable in a smaller, community-based setting with high visibility and accountability

 

Why Consider This Opportunity?

  • Direct access to supportive, experienced ER leadership

  • Backing from executive leaders who understand emergency medicine and invest in the department

  • Opportunity to influence an ER expansion project already moving forward

  • Community hospital environment paired with the resources and prestige of a major academic system

  • Exceptional educational benefits for your family and long-term career advancement
