Camp Kesem at University of Miami is looking for four NURSES and four MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS to join their summer camp team!
Our chapter, one of 116 Camp Kesem chapters across the United States, offers a free week-long camp for kids affected by their parent’s cancer. Camp is cost-free to families, and the camp is planned, executed, and staffed by passionate college student volunteers from the University of Miami. This year, Camp Kesem Miami will be held at Camp Geneva, 36540 Vía Marcia, Fruitland Park, FL 34731. We provide transportation to and from the campsite.
Camp Kesem Miami will be hosting two different sessions during the summer of 2019:
Week 1: August 3-9, 2019
Week 2: August 11-17, 2019
Nurses volunteer throughout the week and will be provided with comfortable lodging, food, and amenities. Nurses will be responsible for dispensing daily medication, as instructed by each camper's physician, and for addressing any health emergencies that may come up over the course of the week. You must hold an RN, LPN/LVN, or be a Nurse Practitioner in the state of Florida, or be willing to obtain a temporary license for that state.
All potential candidates will undergo a background check and interview process.
If you are interested, please reply to this ad with your resume.
