The city

Living in Aurora, CO

Who they are

You are looking at Kindred Hospital Aurora, a 37-bed long-term acute care hospital on the second floor at 700 Potomac Street in Aurora. Every room is private.

More about Kindred Hospital Aurora

The work is extended recovery—patients who need a longer hospital-level stay—rather than a quick med-surg turn. As an RN here you plan and deliver direct and indirect care, and you build the plan with the patient, family, and the rest of the interdisciplinary team. The hospital is part of ScionHealth / Kindred’s specialty hospital group and accepts Medicare and Medicaid. Hiring posts over the years have called for RNs in ICU, Med-Surg, and Tele as well as the core LTAC work. The facility has also put its own RNs forward for Kindred’s internal Paul Diaz Caring Award. What you will not find yet is a stack of nurse reviews online; the public allnurses page for this building still has none. Pay figures from the employer are thin in what we can see, and an old 2019 social post about a $1,000 sign-on should not be treated as current. If private-room LTAC and longer-stay care sound like your kind of floor, this is the setting.

Internal recognition through Kindred’s Paul Diaz Caring Award has gone to bedside RNs at this facility; care planning is described as shared with patient, family, and interdisciplinary staff.

Weighing a first job here?

The license clock and the job hunt run at once, and new-grad windows do the deciding. Residency commitments carry fine print worth reading before you sign.
