That's Okay! Experience in addiction treatment, medications for addiction treatment (MAT), behavioral health, or psychiatric nursing is valuable, but addiction nursing experience is not required.

If you're compassionate, dependable, willing to learn, and interested in helping people in recovery, we provide training and support to help you develop your knowledge and confidence in addiction nursing. Schedule & Opportunities Hope Center operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with nursing coverage around the clock. Nursing opportunities may include day, night, weekend, holiday, full-time, and PRN coverage, depending on current staffing needs. Many nursing shifts are 12-hour shifts, allowing for fewer scheduled workdays during the week. We understand that nurses also have responsibilities outside of work. Depending on the position and staffing needs, we are happy to discuss scheduling options for nurses balancing school, childcare, family responsibilities, another position, or other commitments. PRN opportunities can provide additional flexibility. Why Nurses Choose Hope Center Meaningful work: Be part of an important period in someone's life. Because clients stay with us throughout treatment, you'll have the opportunity to see their progress and know that your care, education, and encouragement contributed to it.
