More about Unity Health
Days can start at the on-site child care center, run through units that range from 3S nights to behavioral health, cardiology clinic, and the Pyeatt Family Cancer Center with its PET/CT and digital linear accelerator, and end with a cafeteria meal at the associate discount. If you are new, you apply to any full-time RN role, mark interest in the RN Residency, and move through about six months of classes, SimMan practice, preceptorship, and scheduled follow-up classes. Experienced nurses on postings such as 3S nights FT/EOW may see a $15,000 sign-on and resource-nurse duties once oriented. Scheduling is described as flexible, with PTO, an extended illness bank, six holidays, and FMLA; tuition reimbursement and educational grants are on the books if you want another degree. The system has posted a Leapfrog A safety grade, ACC chest-pain platinum recognition, and older Arkansas Governor’s Quality awards, and it funds a 5% 401(a) deposit plus medical coverage for anyone at 30+ hours. Glassdoor’s roughly 107 ratings still sit around 3.5/5 with about 45% willing to recommend, so the public nurse picture is mixed even as the benefits list is concrete.
Mission: improve quality of health and well-being through compassionate care; vision emphasizes a healing environment.
