Director of Nursing – Med Surg

new york city

If you’re the kind of nurse leader who can wrangle a Med-Surg team before your first cup of coffee and still smile during a Joint Commission visit, keep reading.

Our general medical-surgical unit (29 beds) and adjacent surgical unit (26 beds) are the heartbeat of the hospital — where a Director of Nursing with equal parts grit and grace keeps it all running smoothly.

You’ll collaborate with the care team across service lines, support RNs on 12-hour shifts and ancillary staff on 8-hour shifts, and bring a little order (and humor) to the daily chaos that only true Med-Surg pros understand.

We’re looking for a positive, forward-thinking nurse leader who believes in shared governance, professional accountability, and teamwork in equal measure. You’ll guide a multidisciplinary staff through both routine and rapid-fire challenges, champion evidence-based practice, and help the team reach the next level on our Pathway to Excellence journey.

If you’ve been a Nurse Manager, Nursing Supervisor, or that Charge Nurse everyone secretly turns to when things go sideways, you’ll fit right in.

What matters most? A positive attitude, a coaching mindset, and the confidence to lead with both empathy and expectation.

This long-standing, not-for-profit healthcare network has been a cornerstone of medical excellence in the area for generations — serving one of New York City’s most vibrant and diverse communities with compassion, commitment, and pride. You’ll be part of a mission-driven environment that values autonomy, teamwork, and humor as much as clinical excellence.
