Learn More & Apply: Nurses & Clinical Staff
“I’ve always felt a part of the team here,” says Sunny Hampsey, vice president of operations and quality. “I’ve had the ability to change positions and develop my career within Springfield Clinic. I went from the oncology nurse navigator to now this role. I hope people in clinical roles know there is someone in the Administration team who knows what they’re going through, knows what their needs are and wants to help them thrive within their roles.”
Growing Your Career
Springfield Clinic offers a variety of medical specialties and services along with growth opportunities to build a career that works for you!
Support & Leadership
Nurse Residency
Designed to support new nurse graduates (RNs and LPNs) transition into their first year of practice, we’ll focus on nursing leadership, enhancing patient outcomes and professional development. Every other month, you’ll attend a 30-minute learning session that emphasizes those key pillars. New nursing graduates will also be rounded on during their first year to ensure that they feel supported in their new role and learning.
Preceptor Network
Members of our Preceptor Network become the “go-to” people in their departments for questions and advice. Bi-monthly meetings occur to discuss best practices, ways to support new staff, the education needs of departments and the championing of new Springfield Clinic initiatives. Preceptors are compensated with a pay differential.
Clinical Ladder Program
Our clinical ladder program will support and recognize clinical staff who go above and beyond their role expectation. RNs, LPNs and CMAs will earn points by participating in educational opportunities, departmental improvement projects, Clinic-wide advisory groups and community events. Once a certain level of points are reached within a twelve month period, the clinical employee can submit for a clinical ladder pay differential. Each year, the employee will continue earning and submitting their points for review to maintain their pay differential.
Training & Education
Student Externship
Our student externship program trains you to help departments with patient needs, such as obtaining vitals, medical histories and medication reconciliation, and simple tasks, such as refilling medications or rescheduling appointments. Students will rotate through various specialties to experience diverse caring strategies and patient populations. The program will run eight weeks in the summer. After completion of the program, participants are encouraged to apply and stay with us as a clinical support assistant during nursing school.
When to apply: After your first semester in nursing school.
Continuing Education
Every month, we offer continuing education hours on various clinical topics for free. This allows you to reach those required learning hours for renewal of licensures and certifications.
