More about Great Plains Regional Medical Center

It is the largest provider in western Oklahoma, with about 50 physicians across 25 specialties, and a service map that includes ICU, emergency, surgery, OB, oncology, orthopedics, inpatient rehab, behavioral health, and home care. A new Sayre Clinic has extended urgent and ancillary care closer to patients in the region. On the floor, full-time, part-time, and PRN RN–ICU roles have been posted, and Surgery RN postings have carried a $15,000 sign-on bonus; full-time ICU RN ads also mention a sign-on without stating the amount. Benefits listed on roles include 401(k) with match, health and vision insurance, PTO, and employee discounts, and the careers site names daycare among its categories. Public quality markers include a 2025 Chartis Performance Leadership Award for patient outcomes and Women’s Choice recognition in the top 5% for emergency care. Elk City itself runs on a short average commute—about eleven minutes—and a close-knit rhythm of neighborhood living, Friday night lights, and affordable housing. Nurse-facing review volume is thin and mixed, so you will want to ask direct questions about staffing and orientation when you talk with the team.

Careers materials describe competitive pay, growth, exceptional benefits, and an employee-focused culture; public awards emphasize rural patient outcomes and emergency care performance.
