RN Inpatient Transplant – St. Luke’s Medical Center – Houston, TX

Baylor St. Luke’s Medical Center is an 881-bed quaternary care academic medical center that is a joint venture between Baylor College of Medicine and CHI St. Luke’s Health. Located in the Texas Medical Center, the hospital is the home of the Texas Heart Institute, a cardiovascular research and education institution founded in 1962 by Denton A. Cooley, MD. The hospital was the first facility in Texas and the Southwest designated a Magnet hospital for Nursing Excellence by the American Nurses Credentialing Center, receiving the award five consecutive times. Baylor St. Luke’s also has three community emergency centers offering adult and pediatric care for the Greater Houston area.

CommonSpirit Health was formed by the alignment of Catholic Health Initiatives (CHI) and Dignity Health. With more than 700 care sites across the U. S., from clinics and hospitals to home-based care and virtual care services, CommonSpirit is accessible to nearly one out of every four U.S. residents. Our world needs compassion like never before. Our communities need caring and our families need protection. With our combined resources, CommonSpirit is committed to building healthy communities, advocating for those who are poor and vulnerable, and innovating how and where healing can happen, both inside our hospitals and out in the community.

Working as a Transplant RN certainly offers a variety of clinical challenges to nurses who choose this clinical area. Your patients are awaiting or have had heart or lung transplants following advance organ disease, organ failure and/or surgery. You wear many hats daily from patient advocate to family advisor and, in some cases, even friend. We understand that.

If you are ready to start a career with an established team in an organization that understands the importance of your life’s calling, it’s time to connect with Baylor St Luke’s!
