At Three Rivers Behavioral Health, a 129 bed facility located in West Columbia, SC, we never forget that patients are people -- people with potential, who can have better relationships and live more productive lives.  For those who seek a secure environment, healing, hope, treatment, and recovery, Three Rivers is the first place for a second chance.  Three Rivers provides psychiatric, detoxification/rehabilitation, and dual diagnosis treatment through inpatient services for adolescents and adults.  Our outpatient services include a Partial Hospitalization Program offering psychiatric day treatment for adults and seniors and an Adult Chemical Dependency Intensive Outpatient Treatment Program offering day and evening sessions.

Responsibilities: Responsible for delivering quality general and psychiatric nursing care to adolescent and adult patients hospitalized for treatment of psychiatric or emotional disorders; serving actively and constructively as a member of the multi-disciplinary treatment team, supporting the organization and program or unit philosophy of care; ensuring the safety and well-being of each patient.

That despite our large company design, each facility is run independently, and so our nurse executives have the autonomy to manage their teams with clinical and educational support from corporate.  You are never alone, as you are part of a large network of peer nurse leaders that routinely exchange ideas and review current topics within the industry.  That we have an active Nursing Council based on shared governance and evidence-based practice.  That we offer internal leadership and clinical education, including a generous annual tuition assistance and continuing education allowance designed to keep you at the top of your practice.  That we offer and support real career advancement opportunity, including our COO-in-Training program and a variety of regional and national corporate roles designed to support the field and share advanced experience.  And, that UHS offers a competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package that reflects the work/life needs of our senior leaders.
