University Medical Center of Southern Nevada (UMC)

Employer postings also describe Pathway designation and, as of 2026, Magnet recognition as the state’s first and only. If you are a new graduate, the Fall 2026 path is a Training Under-Fill into the Centralized Resource Pool. You give care under a preceptor within your competency after orientation; with satisfactory performance within a year you move by non-competitive promotion into a Registered Nurse role. That offer comes with a three-year full-time commitment, including a year tied to the sponsoring department, and an employer-paid Nevada PERS pension that also covers ambulatory RNs. Dollar amounts are not published on the postings—only a competitive salary and benefits package—so you will want to ask directly in the interview. Outside the walls, Las Vegas sits near the national cost-of-living average with no state income tax, and short valley commutes are common.
