Who We Are
The Renfrew Victoria Hospital (RVH) is a 55-bed, fully accredited facility located just 45 minutes west of Ottawa, serving a catchment area of over 60,000. Part of the Renfrew and Area Health Village, RVH provides medical, surgical and complex continuing care as well as extensive ambulatory care with over 30,000 emergency and clinic visits per year. We work with EPIC EMR, which connects us to most hospitals in our region, and training is provided.
RVH provides a number of perks for staff, including up to $800 in education funds every year, an on-site modern gym open 24/7, and regular staff recognition, appreciation and wellness activities. We have a unique nursing bursary program that provides RVH nurses with thousands of dollars each year to further their education and certifications.
But what really makes us proud to be part of RVH is our culture. We are people who provide excellent care for patients and their families, who support each other and our teams, keep each other safe, and are committed to our reputation as a model of excellence in health care. We are very proud of our high retention of staff and are continuously grateful for the amazing support of our community.
More about these Opportunities
RVH is currently hiring full-time, part-time and casual Registered Nurses on our Medical/Surgical unit. The opportunities are mostly to fill temporary lines - once you are in, it is easy to bid into a permanent one on the unit.
The ideal candidate will be an RN with experience with adult medical and surgical care and experience in care of critically ill patients. You will have your current ACLS and CPR certification and current competence in cardiac monitoring as demonstrated with a coronary care/cardiac management course. It is preferred if you have your IV certification. If you have your CNA certification in Medical Surgical or Critical Care Nursing it would be a definite asset.
*We also have opportunities to work in our Level 2 ICU (Special Care Unit or SCU). If you are trained to this area we especially want to hear from you. If you are NOT trained to this area but want to learn, please apply - we can provide training and support for you!
Our Med/Surg/SCU provides care 24/7 and all our nurses may be scheduled days, evenings, nights and weekends. Applicants must be able to work independently and perform duties within the physical demands of the work area.
All RNs are part of the Ontario Nurses Association (ONA).
We participate in the Community Commitment Program for Nurses (CCPN) – if you are new to practice in Ontario and work full time hours with us for 2 years, CCPN provides $25,000 in grants to you.
We are also approved for the CNO Supervised Practice Experience Partnership (SPEP) - nurses with a temporary class of registration are encouraged to apply.
