More about KVC Health Systems
The work centers on children and families—foster care, adoption, and mental health—across Kansas and Missouri campuses, including Kansas City and a growing pediatric mental health hospital project with St. Louis Children’s expected late 2026. Day to day, scheduling is concrete: full-time weekday 7am–7pm RN shifts at the KC Campus, pediatric behavioral-health nights 7pm–7am full- or part-time in Olathe, plus a per-diem night option. Leadership under President & CEO Jason R. Hooper earned Glassdoor’s #15 Best-Led Company ranking in 2025, and a long-tenured RN described supervisors as highly supportive and always available. Pay ranges are not posted in the sources we have, and one RN review flagged high turnover partly tied to the college-town setting. If supportive leadership, mission-driven pediatric behavioral health, and flexible day or night patterns matter more to you than a published rate card, this is a place worth a closer look.
Enrich the lives of children and families so they are safe, connected to a strong family, and healthy in community.
