  About Us
  Brigham and Women's Faulkner Hospital (BWFH) is a 171 bed non-profit, community teaching hospital located in Jamaica Plain, just 3.4 miles from the Longwood medical area, and across the street from the Arnold Arboretum. Founded in 1900, BWFH has a long history of meeting the health care needs of the residents of southwest Boston and surrounding suburbs.
  
  At BWFH, we believe that everyone should have the chance to live a healthy life. That's why we're connected to people wherever they are. Our calling is to allow every voice to be heard and to make a positive impact in every community we serve. From creating breakthroughs that have paved the way for treatments around the globe to training the next generation of providers, our patients, and those we may never meet, are at the center of everything we do!
  
  The Opportunity
  We are seeking a Chief Nursing Officer/Vice President for Patient Care Services (CNO/VP PCS) to elevate BWFH’s foundation of compassionate care and clinical excellence. As a representative of both administration and the nursing population, this role will have a dual reporting structure: to the BWFH hospital president (budget and operations), to the BWH CNO/VP PCS (professional development, education, research, and workforce planning), and jointly to both for quality and on-site leadership.
  
  Are you ready to bring your talent to our hospital and join us in driving medicine forward?

  • Promote continuous learning and professional development of every member of the Nursing Department.
  • Champion an environment that cultivates a new generation of outstanding clinicians by enabling advanced training for nurses and nursing students. Continually aim to advance shared governance, evidence-based practice, and nursing research for the greater advancement of nursing science.
  • Head the institution's initiatives in the monitoring, continuous improvement, and overall excellence in patient care, focused on patients' and clinicians' needs.
