Employment Opportunities at SLH
A new hospital with more beds, expanded lab and diagnostic imaging, and a Primary Care Clinic, means a great number of positions to fill. With construction underway, we are thinking about how to staff the new facility to ensure that health needs of the community are met. We are also thinking about the benefits of staffing the hospital from the community – some people are credentialed and ready to go into the positions available, and some are looking to start down the path to employment, and a new hospital is a great opportunity for all.
Jobs such as housekeeper, cook, food service worker and facility maintenance will be available, as well as positions such as registration clerk, Imaging Tech, Medical Lab Tech, Lab Clerk, and Care Aid. Positions for licensed Practical Nurse and registered nurses will also be available, as well as many positions in the Primary Care Clinic, which will be housed in the new hospital. Jobs in Primary Care include Medical Office Assistants, Primary Care Assistants, Community Health Worker and Rehab Assistant. Mental Health Clinician, Social Worker, Occupational Therapist and Physical Therapist are also positions that will be available, as well as a position for a Nurse Practitioner and, of course, Physicians.
