Welcome to UNC Hospitals Carolina Nursing

Hello,  

Thank you for taking a few moments to learn more about Nursing at UNC Hospitals. 

Across our inpatient and outpatient settings alike, we strive to continue learning, teaching and innovating to improve the health and well-being of our patients. Our team aims to nurture a diverse and collaborative environment to benefit both our patients and our teams. We believe that fostering a supportive, positive workplace for our teammates translates to safe, quality patient-centered care rooted in empathy. It’s what we call Carolina Care – and it’s what we want to be known for. 

As you meet members of our nursing team, I believe you will find the same inspiration that I do. We’re proud to recognize the spectrum of nursing colleagues and assistive personnel through a variety of programs including our annual Nursing Awards, DAISY awards, PETAL Awards (for those who work alongside nurses) and more. 

Nursing at UNC Hospitals offers the opportunity to engage in unique partnerships across the UNC School of Medicine, UNC School of Nursing and other academic areas. These connections enable us to discover and pursue inspiration for innovation, which ultimately improves patient safety.  

Our nursing team is committed to remaining nimble in this evolving landscape of patient care. If you're interested in learning more about joining our team, I would encourage you to explore current opportunities here at UNC Hospitals specifically, and more broadly across UNC Health. 

Thank you,

Jacci
