Indirect duties may include general housekeeping skills, ordering and maintenance of supplies, and computer entry abilities.

4. Safety Sensitive: YES

In the interest of protecting the health and safety of all patients, associates, and guests, Unity Health has classified some positions as “safety sensitive.” A “safety sensitive” position is any job position in which impaired performance could result in harm to the health and/or safety of self or others. Any associate that is actively engaged in the use of medical marijuana, even if in possession of a valid medical marijuana card, will be excluded from employment in a “safety sensitive” position.

(*As the nursing student progresses, the duties assigned will be equivalent to their nursing coursework. Exception will be medication administration which is not allowed during the nursing coursework period.)

A Nurse Intern agrees to a commitment to work with our team for a minimum duration of one year after obtaining Arkansas State Board Certification. Upon certification, Registered Nurses are still eligible for all RN bonuses and can serve commitments simultaneously. A Student Nurse Extern will have no defined commitment.
