Job Description:
ABOUT By the very nature of their duties, Navy Nurses quickly
rise to the top of their profession. They provide care, not only
for military servicemembers and their families, but also for people
in need around the globe. Working with a team of talented
colleagues united by a common mission, Navy Nurses have the
opportunity to educate, lead and shape policy within Navy Health
Care. They also: Apply leading-edge medical advances at world-class
hospitals Utilize some of the most advanced technology on the
planet, such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), which can
lead to less paperwork and more meaningful patient care Work at the
best military nursing facilities on shore, at sea and in the field
RESPONSIBILITIES As an active duty Navy Nurse, you'll provide
high-quality nursing care, doing everything a typical nurse would
do in a variety of settings: Military treatment facilities (in the
U.S. and overseas) Austere environments (i.e. deployments,
humanitarian aid missions) Onboard ships (aircraft carriers,
hospital ships) Nursing in an austere environment could mean taking
part in humanitarian relief efforts, such as administering infant
vaccinations in developing countries, or providing emergency care
to victims of a natural disaster. Navy Nurses collaborate with
physicians, surgeons, cardiologists and fellow nurses as colleagues
and equals. Navy Nursing provides opportunities to develop
leadership skills that will set you apart. WORK ENVIRONMENT Active
Duty Navy Nurses may serve at any one of more than 250 Navy and
medical facilities around the globe, from Hawaii to Japan, Germany
to Guam, and Washington, D.C., to Washington state. As a Navy
Nurse, you could work at one of the highly acclaimed National Naval
Medical Centers in Bethesda, Md.; Portsmouth, Va.; and San Diego,
Calif. Or you could provide medical support aboard one of two
dedicated hospital ships: the USNS Comfort and USNS Mercy. More
opportunities are available stateside and abroad - aboard a surface
ship, working closely with a nearby aircraft squadron, or even with
the Fleet Marine Force. TRAINING & ADVANCEMENT Upon commissioning,
Navy Nurses are required to attend Officer Development School (ODS)
in Newport, R.I. ODS is a five-week program that provides a
comprehensive and intense introduction to the responsibilities of
