Job Description

Are you ready to bring your clinical competencies to a world-class facility recognized as top ten in the United States? Do you have a passion for the highest quality and patient satisfaction? Then please respond to this dynamic opportunity available with one of the best places to work in Southern California! We would be happy to hear from you.

At Cedars-Sinai, we bring the same extraordinary dedication, skill and expertise of our adult care to children. But when a child is sick or injured, it's not enough for a hospital to have the most qualified doctors and advanced technologies.

You need to have access to a team that works together flawlessly, with one goal in mind: healing children as quickly and happily as possible.

From cardiology to urology, our doctors are fellowship trained in their pediatric specialty and have extensive experience providing care from conception to age 18. The Maxine Dunitz Children's Health Center provides clinical care tailored to the needs of children and their families. We care for the whole family-and spend time answering questions, listening and taking the time to make treatment options clear and understandable. It's why we're known for our excellence in patient care and why parents throughout Los Angeles choose us to care for their family.

As a Clinical Nurse III (CN III) in the Children’s Health Center, you will work with a multidisciplinary team to support the pediatric specialty clinic.
