Spotlight on Nursing

"It's tough. It's exciting. And I love it." - Caroline, RN, BSN, CPON

UW Health nurses in Madison, Wisconsin, have a reputation for expert, compassionate care. We take great pride in hiring men and women who consider patient care their number one priority.

 

Our roster of nursing professionals is made up of dedicated individuals who have found their employment at UW Health to be at once challenging and satisfying.

At UW Health, you will find a vast array of nursing opportunities to match your career and personal goals. Whether you are interested in a fast-paced inpatient unit (with shift differentials), busy outpatient clinic settings or management opportunities, there is a lot to explore with UW Health.

At the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics, we believe that nursing is both an art and a science. Nurses here are not only highly accomplished practitioners with extensive knowledge about advanced diagnostic and therapeutic modalities, but they are also deeply committed to delivering care in a manner sensitive to the patient's and family's needs.

 

We have adopted a professional practice model throughout the organization that emphasizes the sanctity of the nurse/patient relationship; the deep, mutual respect among professional colleagues; and the delivery of exemplary, compassionate care. In short, the nursing professionals at UW Hospital and Clinics are distinguished by their keen minds and caring hearts.

 

To continue and enhance our dedication to excellence in nursing, we have set forth our philosophy and values. I invite you to spend some time learning more about the priorities we have set:
