Why this role is for you

This role is especially rewarding for experienced cardiac RNs who want to continue using their clinical judgment while transitioning from inpatient bedside care into a prevention‑focused setting. You'll still rely on your assessment skills, cardiac knowledge, and ability to recognize subtle patient changes, but you'll also have the rare opportunity to spend time educating, coaching, and advocating for patients across 36 visits as they recover and regain strength. With no weekends, holidays, or call, and a supportive, close‑knit team culture, this position offers both professional fulfillment and work‑life balance - while allowing you to see the healing side of cardiac care and make a lasting impact. This is an ideal opportunity for nurses who value relationship‑based care, enjoy teaching, and find purpose in watching patients improve and reduce their risk of future cardiac events. You'll build strong rapport with patients and families and serve as a trusted advocate throughout their recovery journey.

What to expect

: As a Registered Nurse in Cardiac Rehabilitation, you will support secondary prevention and recovery for patients following cardiac and pulmonary events in a fast‑paced, outpatient setting. You will collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team to guide patients through a structured 36‑visit rehabilitation program. Patient populations include those recovering from heart attack, heart failure, coronary stent placement, post-heart surgery, and chronic or restrictive pulmonary disease. You will conduct comprehensive patient assessments, review health histories to determine appropriate starting points, and monitor patient progress over time. On a typical day, the program supports a high volume of patients moving through multiple exercise and monitoring stations, requiring strong multitasking skills and attention to detail. This position emphasizes education, prevention, and long‑term lifestyle change rather than traditional inpatient bedside nursing. Responsibilities include interpreting telemetry and EKG data, leading patient education initiatives, developing and managing individualized treatment plans, completing documentation and charging, and supporting patients as they enter and graduate from the program. This role requires solid cardiac experience, comfort working independently in a busy environment, and the ability to manage many moving parts simultaneously.

Oregon license must be obtained within 6 months of hire.
BLS certification required at date of hire; ACLS required within 6 months.
