About This Role
This full-time charge nurse position covers medical-surgical and oncology patients on day shifts from 7am to 7pm at Piedmont Augusta's main campus.

This position offers a sign-on bonus and appeals to experienced RNs seeking leadership responsibilities without rotating shifts. The role suits nurses comfortable with both acute medical cases and oncology patients, who can delegate effectively, problem-solve under pressure, and mentor floor staff.
