We believe in bringing "better" to our local community in Fresno - better care, better collaboration, and a deep commitment to the people we serve.

We are looking for a registered nurse known for being an innovative self-starter and who enjoys process and quality improvement. If this describes you, then this may be the ideal career for you.

Wouldn't you love to wake up every day excited about the work you do, leading the way and truly changing healthcare for the better? If youre looking for a role that supports your professional growth and your connection to a vibrant community, we'd love to talk.

Qualifications:

As a CPN, you will work in a fast-paced, hospital environment while maintaining great attention to detail and accuracy in all you do. While this position does not provide direct patient care, this role requires strong clinical knowledge and experience in the acute care hospital setting. As part of our practice, we're looking for someone with:

• A minimum of 2 years of acute care nursing experience is required.
• Applicants must hold an active RN licensure in good standing; a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) is preferred.
• Candidates should be proficient in technology, including electronic medical systems and Microsoft Office.
• Experience with quality improvement initiatives aimed at enhancing patient satisfaction is essential.

• The position offers a 40-hour work week.
• The schedule is Monday through Friday, providing work-life balance.
• No nights, no weekends, and paid holidays.

Key Responsibilities:

• Demonstrate strong clinical knowledge and experience in an acute care setting.
• Assess patients clinical status and readiness for discharge.
• Ensure effective communication across the care team as patients progress through their hospital stay.
• Focus on improving the overall quality of patient care.
• Participate in daily workflows and advocate for patient goals in the care plan.

Living and Working in Fresno:

• As a CPN, you're an essential member of the team that partners with the medical director to engage and educate the hospitalist physicians and advanced practice providers in quality and process improvement initiatives. You'll use key metrics from our proprietary metrics software to measure and track performance outcomes.
• Our guiding principle is patient-first care, which means we're focused on the people in our local community. You'll be part of a team that's making a real difference in the health of our neighbors.

Rewards and Compensation:

• $115K salary, plus bonus opportunity.
• Robust benefits plan.

• Specialty Leadership

• Practicing :

Begin your journey as a Clinical Performance Nurse by partnering closely with hospital medicine teams to elevate patient care, improve outcomes, and strengthen clinical workflows. In these roles, you build expertise in performance improvement, data interpretation, documentation support, and clinical education - helping clinicians stay aligned, supported, and able to deliver exceptional care. As you progress through roles such as CPN, CPN‑Advanced, and Ambassador CPN‑Advanced, you deepen your impact, take on broader site support, and help drive consistency and connection across teams.

• Specialty Leadership :

Advance into wider-reaching leadership roles that shape performance across multiple hospitals, regions, and service lines. Leaders such as Managers and Directors of Clinical Performance bring together teams, processes, and analytics to support sustained performance and operational excellence. At the most senior levels - including Vice President of Clinical Performance and beyond - you help set organizational strategy, lead high‑impact initiatives, and influence national standards. These roles elevate the voice of nursing and ensure that clinical performance remains connected, collaborative, and consistently improving across Sound.
