The Atkins Family Health Center at Camp Chi, newly built for the summer of 2021, is staffed by 3-4 health center aides, 6-8 nurses and a visiting doctor. Nurses provide direct health care and lots of TLC.  The Health Center at Camp Chi is a fun and busy place to work.  Having a team of nurses allows for a good work/camp life balance. Our team of Registered Nurses provide medical attention to campers and staff, organize, and dispense medications and communicate with parents.

  • Willingness to live in a camp setting and work irregular hours, including potential overnight shifts
  • Work with local health care providers to secure appointments for medical needs beyond what camp provides
  • Show respect and acceptance of all races, creeds, classes, backgrounds, religion, and sexual orientations

Compensation:

Highly competitive salary and great perks, including private, air-conditioned staff housing, tuition waiver for children to attend camp FREE or at a reduced rate, childcare for young children, and access to camp facilities. $1200/week

Most of our nurses are required to be a licensed RN with the ability and willingness to obtain their Wisconsin licensure (you will be reimbursed for the cost).  Limited positions available for LPN’s.
