Nursing Services is required to support the advanced medical programs provided by NGHA. In addition, our patient population is diverse and, using the life cycle model, ranges from maternal and infant care, to child, adolescent, adult, and older adult care. Inpatient and Ambulatory Care occupancy rates are at capacity reflecting more patients requiring more complex care who are hospitalized for shorter periods. In order to meet these challenges, Nursing Services requires providing high quality nursing care delivered by competent professional and support staff in an environment which focuses on the patient and family, promoting and maintaining individual well being and safety.

Nursing Services currently have approximately 2,500 Nursing and Non-Nursing positions comprising personnel from over 44 different nationality bases. This national diversity reflects the diversity in culture and clinical skills within Nursing Services.
