More about St. Joseph Regional Medical Center, Inc.
Job copy describes a teamwork-first culture and supportive leaders, and the employer states it welcomes new grads with training and mentoring aimed at building confidence. On the floor, the texture is concrete: full-time nights in ICU with hemodynamic monitoring and emergency response; Med/Surg with a night Patient Care Leader option; PACU work watching vitals and surgical sites after anesthesia. Shift differentials are paid based on where most of your hours fall. Schedules show up as full-time days, full-time nights, or PRN depending on the unit. Idaho is a compact-license state with a flat income tax near 5.7%, and Lewiston’s cost of living runs about 9% below the national level. Public RN pay figures are mostly listed or estimated ranges rather than one locked employer rate, and there is no formal residency spelled out—only the mentoring commitment—so you will want to ask recruiters directly about your unit’s orientation and the number on the offer.
Job branding ties the facility to ScionHealth values and, on at least one Cancer Center posting, to Lifepoint Health; copy emphasizes community focus, teamwork, and supportive leadership.
