Nurse-Night Shift 7pm-7am

The Enhanced Services Facilities (ESF) utilize NURSES to assist residents with living independent lifestyles while thriving in a community setting. The program specializes in providing medical, behavioral, and housing support for residents as young as 18 living with behavioral health challenges. Our staff empower these residents to overcome life-long adversities and honor their choices, goals, and preferences for how they choose to interact with their community.

The ESF is designed to have a low resident-to-staff ratio and these programs have a mostly younger and independent population. ESF nursing requires a type of assertive patience and the ability to utilize effective communication skills. Staff must be self-motivated when completing various tasks, as well as collaborative when working with the team.
