Registered Nurse Emergency Department

When you join the growing BILH team, you're not just taking a job, you're making a difference in people's lives.

Lahey believes that the nurse-patient relationship, continuity of care and personal accountability are central to the delivery of individualized high quality patient care. Lahey opened a new spacious state-of-the-art Emergency Department which has:

• Over 45,000-square-foot ED with 44 Beds, a completely new entrances and a sun-filled reception area
• A convenient imaging suite, a pharmacy, a fast-track area and a behavioral health suite
• Private treatment rooms, a special family waiting area and a family consultation room

As the Lahey Emergency Department grows, we are seeking experienced and qualified nurses for our new ED. The experienced and highly skilled nurses in the ED provide care to patients that have been in accidents or have medical emergencies that need immediate attention. Because of Lahey's transplant service, cardiology service and cancer center, a lot of patients are already compromised. If these patients develop a stomach bug, it can represent a true emergency; the ED pulls a team together to make sure these patients are stable before they are admitted. Lahey Hospital & Medical Center utilizes EPIC for computerized charting and medication administration.
