Overview
Camp Fernwood in Poland, Maine is looking for RN’s and NP’s for the 2025 camp season (June 13-August 8th). Established in 1921, we are a traditional summer camp for girls situated in a beautiful outdoor lakeside setting in southern Maine. We take pride in taking good care of our staff – with a staff to camper ratio of 1 : 1.5, allowing for adequate time off and flexibility.
Our infirmary is staffed with 4-5 experienced RN’s and a Nurse Practitioner. Typical responsibilities include dispensing pre-packaged daily medications to the camp community, administering basic first aid and TLC, and record keeping. Most importantly we are looking for energetic people who can work as part of a team, love children, and enjoy the outdoors. If you’re a people person, you’ll love working with us.
We encourage all of our nurses and staff to be involved in camp by taking advantage of all that camp has to offer – learn to waterski, shoot a bow, dabble in the arts, or sit by the lake and relax. Benefits may include a competitive salary, room, board, laundry service, periodic use of company automobiles for time off, and an exciting and fun work environment.
