ABOUT THE JOB
MU Health Care is looking for motivated individuals who are eager to start a career in healthcare and make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients. Our Nurse Tech Trainee pathway is designed for applicants who do not yet meet the qualifications to work as a Nurse Tech but are ready to gain valuable hands-on experience while completing their training.
Nurse Tech Trainees begin their journey with three days of orientation and then transition directly into unit-based training and patient care experiences. While continuing to complete training requirements, including BLS certification and online learning modules, you'll work alongside experienced health care professionals and become an important member of the care team. Successful completion of MU Health Care’s Nurse Tech Trainee pathway prepares you for the option to test for the CNA Challenge exam, if you choose.
As a Nurse Tech, you'll help patients with daily activities, support nursing staff, respond to patient needs, and contribute to a compassionate, patient-centered environment. Whether you're exploring a future in nursing, preparing for a healthcare career, or looking for meaningful work that directly impacts others, this opportunity provides valuable experience while allowing you to earn a paycheck and build your skills from day one.
