Brattleboro, nestled along the Connecticut River in southern Vermont, is a place where culture, nature, and opportunity converge.

Collaboration is at the heart of success: you’ll work with psychiatrists, social workers, therapists, and discharge planners to craft cohesive treatment plans, coordinate care transitions, and provide patient and family education that empowers informed decisions. You’ll document care with accuracy and timeliness, support therapeutic groups and individual therapies, and contribute to quality improvement initiatives. The role invites ongoing professional growth—pursuing advanced certifications, leading evidence-based practice initiatives, and embracing leadership opportunities within the psychiatric nursing specialty.
