Nursing Careers

Nursing Culture

Whether our nurses are researching diseases, exploring innovations in nursing practice, caring for critically ill patients or serving as support faculty for Houston-area nursing programs, they are a vital part of Memorial Hermann.

Most importantly, nurses can pursue a complete career here—being challenged,
rewarded, and advancing to management level roles if they choose.

Memorial Hermann offers nurses many advantages as part of a culture of collaboration, competence, innovation, compassion and opportunity, including:
   

• Career Advancement. Go from entry–level nurse to clinical specialist to management in our system. Your knowledge, skill, performance and willingness to learn make the difference.

• Cross-training. Satisfy your career-change ambitions without leaving our organization. Learn a new clinical practice specialty, jump back into nursing with a career refresher course or collaborate at Houston–area schools of nursing, including The University of Texas, Texas Woman’s University, Houston Baptist University and Prairie View A&M for nursing degrees.

• Tuition Reimbursement. From your first day of employment you are eligible for tuition reimbursement to help advance your career education goals with a nursing related regimen of study. Memorial Hermann also encourages nurses to attain specialty certification, for which reimbursement is also available.
  – BSN/ADN and all other clinical positions for both full and part-time employees $5,000 per semester
  – MSN and MBA coursework will be reimbursed up to $7,500 per semester
  – All other (non-clinical) positions will be reimbursed up to $2,000 per semester

• In–Service Programs for Continuing Education Credit. Take advantage of continuing and specialty education programs available within your department and facility.

• Nursing Grand Rounds. Participate in programs at our larger hospitals that focus on specific disease processes, patient care plans or other medical issues. Grand rounds provide a forum for critical thinking and a chance to expand your knowledge.
