More about HCA Houston ER 24/7 - Mission Bend
It is owned by HCA Healthcare and tied into the HCA Houston Healthcare West network, sitting alongside the Westchase freestanding ER rather than inside a full hospital campus. The RN FSER role here is built for nurses who already know emergency care: postings call for an Associate or Bachelor’s degree and two years of ER experience, with PRN schedules listed. You chart in MEDITECH and coordinate patient-centered ER care in a freestanding setting. CMS figures tied to the facility show a median ED discharge length of stay around 112 minutes and a left-without-being-seen rate near one percent. Appropriate severe sepsis care sits at 68 percent, and the site does not carry stroke certification or the common ACEP emergency accreditations—worth weighing if those markers matter to how you practice.
