Reid & Associates has been engaged to recruit an experienced Emergency Department Director for a respected, independent community hospital in Rural Northern California.
This hospital serves a diverse coastal region and operates a busy Emergency Department that plays a central role in the community. The organization is financially stable, locally governed, and committed to high-quality patient care and strong clinical leadership.
The ER Director will lead a dedicated team, help strengthen department culture, and partner closely with senior leadership to improve operations, quality, and patient experience.
Why This Role Stands Out
• High visibility and real influence
You won’t be buried in a big system. Your ideas are heard, and you’ll work directly with senior leaders who want a strong, engaged ER Director.
• A department ready for strong leadership
The team is steady but needs someone who can drive improvements in throughput, flow, clinical consistency, quality, and staff engagement.
• The best parts of California living—without big-system politics
This hospital operates independently, giving you room to lead without unnecessary red tape. The surrounding region offers outdoor beauty, a relaxed lifestyle, and a tight-knit community feel.

Lead daily operations of the Emergency Department
-
Mentor and develop nursing and support staff
-
Improve throughput, patient flow, and satisfaction metrics
-

What We’re Looking For
-
Current ER Nurse Manager or ER Director

Strong leadership presence with a hands-on approach
-
Track record of improving staff morale, performance, and patient experience
-
