More about Jackson County Regional Health Center
Right now the board shows PCU RN full-time .9 nights (with a $5,000 sign-on listed for that posting) and PCU RN PRN, so you can picture either set night hours or as-needed shifts before you apply. Day to day you chart in Epic—the system went live in late July 2026—and you work in a place that still runs a cafeteria for visitors and ties its patient portal into Genesis Health systems. Staff talk about learning new skills and equipment and about a clear sense of purpose; the DAISY Award program is featured on the careers site. Charge nurse roles exist if that path matters to you later. Maquoketa itself is a small, slower-paced town where guides emphasize affordability and quiet streets, though many errands still need a car. Iowa is a compact-license state with a flat state income tax around 3.8%. What you will not find spelled out here is a published nurse base range or a formal residency—those details are simply not in the current facts—so you would want to ask about pay bands and orientation when you talk with them.
