Peterson Health is looking to hire nurses for various departments throughout the hospital. Peterson Health offers a comprehensive one year Nurse Residency program designed to effectively support new graduate nurses. The program is intended to facilitate the development of the knowledge, skills, and attitudes required for successful nurses of the future. Critical thinking will be enhanced through utilization of the nursing process, communication, socialization, teamwork, and simulation. Peterson Health is also currently on a journey to become a Magnet hospital.

Peterson Health’s flagship hospital, Peterson Regional Medical Center, a 124-bed, not-for-profit rural community hospital located in Kerrville, began a legacy of exceptional, compassionate, patient-centered care – forming the foundation of Peterson’s inspired mission to offer world-class care, today, tomorrow, and always.

Home to more than 1,000 full time employees and 250 medical professionals, Peterson Health remains the largest employer in Kerr County for decades. Peterson Health is alive and thriving thanks to the tireless dedication of individuals who see healthcare as their calling and their efforts have not gone unnoticed both here at home and on a national scale as they care for more people in more places every day.
