About Us
Resource Nursing is a unit within Patient Care Services at University of Utah Health Care. The purpose of Resource Nursing is to provide quality staff to all Patient Care Units to assist with patient care during times of high census, high acuity, and/or low individual unit staff availability.
There are five "clusters" in Patient Care Services that Resource staff work within. It is highly recommended that nurses select at least two clusters to work in, and HCA’s are expected to work in all clusters (except Outpatient). The clusters are as follows:
