Key Responsibilities:

  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary care teams to achieve patient and family outcomes
  • Administer medications, including IV medications, per hospital formulary
  • Complete all required documentation by the end of the shift
  • Comply with NSHA site-specific policies, emergency codes, and organizational practices
  • Perform rapid triage assessments using the CTAS framework
  • Manage high-acuity emergency presentations, including trauma and resuscitation
  • Initiate emergency interventions and stabilization protocols
  • Participate in emergency response teams and code situations

  • Criminal records check AND vulnerable sector check (clean — no exceptions)
  • Full immunization compliance per NSHA requirements (Influenza, COVID-19, Varicella, Hepatitis B, Measles, Mumps, Rubella, Tdap, Meningococcal, Tuberculosis testing)
  • Proof of legal right to work in Canada
