Female Summer Camp Nurse

Position: Summer Camp Nurse (RN / LPN / Retired)
Dates: Full-time Summer | June 13 – August 3

Location: Mt. Gilead Camp, Pocono Mountains, PA

The Ministry of Wellness & Care
At Mt. Gilead, we believe that physical well-being is the foundation for spiritual growth. When a camper feels safe, healthy, and cared for, she is free to experience the joy of Christ and the wonder of the Poconos. We are seeking compassionate, skilled medical professionals to serve as our Summer Camp Nurses—the primary providers of "TLC" and medical oversight for our community.

Your Impact: More Than Just First Aid
As the Camp Nurse, you are a trusted figure for both campers and staff. Your role is a blend of professional medical management and maternal-style encouragement.

Clinic Management: Overseeing the daily "Health Hut" operations, including medication administration, treating minor injuries (scrapes, stings, and bumps), and managing illness protocols.

Strategic Oversight: Reviewing camper health forms and partnering with the Kitchen Staff to manage allergies and dietary restrictions.

A Comforting Presence: Providing a listening ear and a band-aid to a homesick 8-year-old or a tired counselor. You are the "Camp Mom" who keeps the spirit of the camp healthy.

Safety Advocacy: Serving as a consultant for the Leadership Team on camp-wide health, hygiene, and safety practices.

Why Serve Your Summer at Mt. Gilead?
A Unique Practice Environment: Trade the sterile hospital hallways for 175 acres of woods and fresh air. You’ll practice nursing in a high-energy, joyful setting.

Spiritual Renewal: Immerse yourself in a Christian community. Whether you are currently practicing or a retired nurse looking for a meaningful way to use your skills, you will find deep purpose here.

Flexible Engagement: While we are looking for full-time summer coverage, we are open to discussing split-summer or weekly commitments for the right candidates.

Compensation & Comfort: Competitive salary provided, along with private or semi-private housing and all meals included.

Qualifications
Credentials: Must be a Registered Nurse (RN) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) with a current license.

Heart for Ministry: A passion for youth ministry and a desire to see girls grow in their faith and confidence.

Temperament: Calm under pressure, approachable, and possessing a good sense of humor (essential for camp life!).
