Let your commitment to caring guide you here.
If you are a Registered Nurse (RN) who would enjoy the deep satisfaction of supporting our clients with excellent nursing care, consider joining Guide Dogs for the Blind (GDB). As a RN on our beautiful campus in San Rafael, CA you’ll care for people who are blind or visually impaired as they visit our campus for training with their assigned guide dog.
During their stay, you may be involved in first aid, wound, and foot care; treating minor illnesses and injuries; providing rapid assessment in emergency situations, providing emotional support, and transporting clients to and from appointments. We will also rely on you to assist with the medical review of applicants and intake of new students, as well as checking in with diabetic clients during their stay. You may also be involved in researching and presenting to our staff on health issues pertinent to our workplace.
The qualifications you’ll need:
• California RN licensure and a minimum of three years of experience
• CPR/AED/first aid certification
• Experience in occupational health or school setting desirable
• Experience working with people with disabilities a plus
What sets us apart?
• It’s a different kind of RN job that’s fun and rewarding, as you provide personal care and deliver emotional support to a specialized client base.
• We value working with our clients and supporting our mission of creating exceptional partnerships between people, dogs, and communities.
• You’ll primarily work daytime and early evening hours including optional weekend and holidays hours, with no 12-hour shifts or overnights. Nurses love the work/life balance they can achieve with us.
• The pace is more manageable and less stressful than at a hospital, giving you the time to provide quality care with as much individual attention as you need.
• GDB is supportive and everyone lives GDB’s values every day, which makes coming to work here so satisfying.
• Our generous benefits package includes medical/dental/vision/life/disability insurance, 403(b), tuition reimbursement, and great wellness perks like yoga, circuit training, and an onsite gym.
• You can bring your dog to work!
