Job Description

Quinipet Camp & Retreat Center, located on beautiful Shelter Island, NY, is looking for a Nurse Assistant to join our summer camp team! This is an incredible opportunity for a nursing student or someone interested in a healthcare career to develop pediatric and adolescent care skills in a supportive, fun-filled environment.

Under the guidance of an experienced RN, you’ll be an essential part of camp life—handling first aid, assisting with assessments, documenting care, and ensuring the well-being of our campers and staff. Some days, you might be administering bandages; other days, you could be making a quick trip to the doctor’s office; every day, you’ll be making a difference!

What You’ll Do:

  • Assist the Camp Nurse with first aid, assessments, and documentation
  • Support campers and staff with health needs
  • Maintain the Health Center and first-aid supplies
  • Drive campers and staff to medical appointments when necessary
  • Be an integral part of a welcoming, enthusiastic team

What We’re Looking For:

  • Nursing student or college student interested in a healthcare career
  • Strong organizational and computer skills
  • Valid driver’s license (must be at least 21 years old)
  • Current or ability to obtain Red Cross Advanced First Aid (RTE), AED and CPR PR
  • Experience with pediatrics or adolescent behavioral health is a plus

Dates: June 10 – August 23
Perks: Room and board, including housing with the camp leadership team, breathtaking waterfront location, and a summer you’ll never forget!

Ready to gain real-world medical experience while making a lasting impact? Apply today!

Job Requirements
  • Must be at least 21 years old

  • Valid driver’s license (for transporting campers/staff to medical appointments)
  • Currently enrolled in or interested in a nursing or healthcare-related field
  • Strong computer and organizational skills (for documentation and record-keeping)
  • Certifications (or ability to obtain before the start of camp):
    • Red Cross Advanced First Aid (RTE)
    • CPR and AED for the Professional Rescuer (CPR PR)
