We’re partnering with a highly respected nonprofit teaching health system in Southern California to find an experienced Wound Care Nurse Manager to lead and strengthen its inpatient wound care program.  
 
This is an opportunity for a hands-on clinical leader who wants to do more than manage a team.

The Perfect Candidate:

• BSN required, MSN preferred  

• Active California RN license 

• Current BLS through the American Heart Association 

• 4+ years of acute care RN experience 

• At least 1 year of nursing leadership/management experience preferred 

• Strong inpatient wound care expertise 

• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills 

• A collaborative, approachable leadership style 

• Someone looking for a long-term leadership opportunity, not simply their next title 

 

Why Consider It? 

This is a well-established health system with a strong reputation for clinical excellence, education, innovation, and professional development. You’ll have the resources of a large regional medical center while having the opportunity to make a visible impact on the wound care program and the team you lead. 

And the location is hard to beat. 

• Warm, sunny Southern California climate 

• Hiking, mountains and year-round outdoor recreation 

• Wellness-focused, relaxed lifestyle 

• Golf, tennis, dining, arts and entertainment 

• Convenient access to beaches and major Southern California destinations 

This is an ideal opportunity for a WOCN-certified Nurse leader who wants to have a voice in the direction of a wound care program and make a tangible difference in patient care, staff development and clinical outcomes.  

If you are ready to take the next step in your career and the idea of combining meaningful work within an exceptional Southern California environment…We’d love to hear from you!
