Job Details

Join Cleveland Clinic South Pointe Hospital and experience healthcare at its best. This facility is a proud Magnet Hospital awarded by the American Nurses Credentialing Center, the highest honor an organization can receive for professional nursing practice. Here, you will provide stellar patient care, work with state-of-the-art technology and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.       

Join the team on the newly designed 3rd floor at South Pointe Hospital, designed by nurses to improve patient care and workflow for nurses. Where excellence is the standard and innovation drives exceptional patient care. Our new medical-surgical unit is an exciting extension of our award-winning 9th Floor Surgical Med-Surg team, bringing with it the same culture of collaboration, clinical excellence and compassionate care that earned the prestigious AMSN PRISM Award—a national recognition celebrating sustained excellence in nursing leadership, patient outcomes, interprofessional teamwork and a healthy work environment. As the newest Cleveland Clinic Bariatric Center of Excellence, in partnership with South Pointe, our team will provide specialized, high-quality care for bariatric patients while continuing to care for a diverse surgical population, including orthopedic, vascular, gynecologic, urologic, plastic and reconstructive, wound care and general surgery patients such as appendectomies, cholecystectomies, exploratory laparotomies and many others.
