• Full-Time Night Shift RN opportunity - Sunday–Thursday, 10:30pm–7:15am

About the Role

If you’re someone who thrives on night shift, enjoys the calm, steady pace of overnight work, and values having the space to focus deeply on resident care — this role is made for you.

As the overnight RN at Balladong Gardens, you’ll be the clinical lead on site.
