More about Medical City Denton

Full-time Surgical Trauma PCU nights run 7PM–7AM with rotating weekends; CVICU has been actively hiring, including events that advertised a $20,000 sign-on paid in the first 30 days and relocation help. On paper the total rewards are broad: medical, Rx, dental, vision, behavioral health, telemedicine, PTO, paid family leave, short- and long-term disability, a 401(k) with 100% match on 3–9% depending on tenure, ESPP, and fertility/family benefits. Tuition assistance, certification support, dependent scholarships, a Galen College of Nursing partnership, and student loan assistance are listed too. RN roles want a Texas or compact license, ADN required and BSN preferred, with ACLS and BLS for Surgical Trauma PCU. Peers often credit the people beside them—strong teamwork shows up in reviews—even while understaffing, heavy loads, and burnout risk come up just as clearly. Learning opportunities exist; many still feel career progression is limited. Comp is frequently called out as not matching the demand. If you want trauma volume and a teaching-floor pace in a university town north of DFW, this is the setting; go in with eyes open on staffing.
