Standard Qualifications: We are seeking a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) to join the Rehab Center Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit at Johnston-Willis Hospital.

We are proud that our patient-nurse ratio is 6:1; this allows our nurses to focus on the whole patient and provide individualized care to each patient.

Our 292-bed hospital offers a full range of healthcare services, with specialties in addition to inpatient rehabilitation such as cancer care - through the Thomas Johns Cancer Hospital, our ER which is a state-authorized level III trauma center, and neuroscience, including our first-in-Richmond Gamma Knife Center. The Licensed Practical Nurse in Inpatient Rehabilitation: 1. Provides for the clinical management of the patient under the direction of the Registered Nurse. 2.
