More about working here
  • Moving here

    South Carolina is a compact-license state, so if you already hold a compact RN license you can start without a second full license process.

  • Experienced nurses

    The hospital accepts VA Community Care Network and TRICARE, so veteran patients are part of the regular census.

  • Experienced nurses

    You sit inside Tidelands Health and Encompass Health, with admissions open 365 days and nearly a dozen outpatient rehab sites across the region if your path shifts later.

The city

Living in Little River, SC

Little River is a laid-back coastal fishing village on South Carolina's Intracoastal Waterway, just south of the North Carolina line and minutes from North Myrtle Beach. Expect saltwater marinas, seafood festivals, and a slower pace of life for nurses seeking a quieter waterfront base.

More about Tidelands Health Rehabilitation Hospital, an affiliate of Encompass Health

Stroke, brain injury, spinal cord, and orthopedic recovery sit at the center, supported by PT, OT, and speech, plus modern therapy gyms and rooms built for this pace. Your shift sits inside a full care team—therapists, dietitians, pharmacists, case managers—and physicians come through often. Many of the nurses around you already carry rehabilitation nursing certification. If dialysis is your lane, inpatient hemodialysis roles here cover direct care, assessments, care plans, and teaching staff on the equipment. The hospital takes VA Community Care Network and TRICARE, and admissions run 365 days as an Encompass Health affiliate inside the Tidelands Health system. Little River still pulls people who want quieter coastal living, though newcomers are changing that feel and the cost of living can land harder than expected when you first arrive. Pay figures are not laid out in the materials we have, so you will want to ask directly when you talk with them.
