We offer day and residential summer programs for clever and curious students in grades 4 through 12 on three of the most beautiful college campuses on the East Coast of the U.S. For many, EXPLO is a life-changing experience.

EXPLO’s summer programs run this summer from June 30th to August 9th, 2024, with staff orientation beginning on June 22nd.

Most registered nurse candidates should expect to work shifts totaling 30-45 hours per week, which may include some weekends and occasional overnights. We also have the option to hire nurses to work primarily evenings and weekends. Most shifts overlap so you can expect to regularly work alongside other registered nurses. We will schedule your hours before the summer and take your preferences into account.

  • Work closely with all Summer Program offices to ensure that medications are properly administered to all students
  • Work closely with all Summer Program offices to ensure that medications are properly packed for off-campus student field trips
  • Travel quickly as needed to injured or ill students on campus with a travel medical bag to assess and triage students who are unable to walk to the Health Office
  • Provide a healthy, safe, and welcoming Health Office environment for Summer Program students
  • Provide supervision to students who may be required to stay overnight in the Health Office due to health or disciplinary reasons

Nurses must be able to lift at least 15-20 pounds and be able to move and treat students quickly in an emergency if necessary.

About You:

  • A current nursing certification (Registered nurse, licensed practice nurse, APRN, licensed vocational nurse, certified school nurse, certified nurse assistant, or nurse practitioner) in the state of the program
  • At least one year of professional registered nursing (RN, NP) experience
  • The ability to commute to and from the program during the summer

Ideally, you’ve also got:

  • Experience working with students in a camp or school setting

Compensation + Benefits:

This is a seven week, seasonal position. Remote training for this role may begin as early as January 2024. In person training begins in mid-June 2024. Compensation for this role starts at $36/hour for Massachusetts positions and $43/hour for New York positions and scales based on experience.
