North Star Camp for Boys

 

We hire R.N.’s, GPN’s and experienced LPN’s to run our health center.  Sue Lebby, one of our Directors, is an experienced Pediatric nurse and provides training, mentoring and support for our nurse. Our Health Center is wellness oriented and we have good systems in place to deliver efficient services to our camp population. Volunteer doctors are with us for many weeks out of the summer and we have a Medical Director in town who sees our campers when needed. 

Our nurse has private housing in our centrally located health center.  Our nurse is further supported by a first responder team of staff members who have advanced first aid training and respond in the event of an emergency.  Our nurse has office hours three times a day for approximately an hour.  However if there are no campers to see our nurse is on call with a radio and free to enjoy the benefits of working at a summer camp.  We want our nurse to be out and about camp enjoying camp with our campers whenever possible.  Camp nursing provides a fun and interesting way to work in Pediatrics.  Salary depends on experience.  Nurses must be able to commit to a 5wk contract to cover training and a 4wk. camper session.
