As a nurse at On With Life, you can be a part of something greater. The rehabilitation process from a brain injury or other neurological condition is a 24/7 job for each person served, and our nurses collaborate with our medical providers, dietary team and other individuals in our transdisciplinary team of experts to keep persons served healthy along the way.

There is great joy in watching someone do something for the first time after their injury. Youll have the opportunity to watch people take their first steps, say their first words, or even enjoy their first snack or favorite meal. You can be a large part of the journey that each person served takes, making memories with them along the way. With one of the top nursing staff-to-patient ratios in the state, youll have more time with each person served, including activities like playing a game of cards, painting nails, or even watching a movie. We are a not-for-profit organization founded by survivors and their families, and each person served is a new member of that family. We are looking for extraordinary individuals like you to join us!
