  • To show our commitment to you and to assist with your transition into our organization, we will also offer up to $31,000 in hiring incentives when applicable. This is a part-time .6 FTE position.

    You.




    You bring your body, mind, heart and spirit to your work as a Lactation Consultant Registered Nurse.




    Your compassion is tangible: patients feel it in the hand they hold. Families feel it in your prayers. Colleagues feel it in your support.




    You’re equally comfortable with breastfeeding management, breastfeeding-related policy development, and patient education.




    You’re great at what you do, but you want to be part of something even greater. Because you believe that while individuals can be strong, the right team is invincible.




    Us.




    In this role, you will have the opportunity to provide breastfeeding education, consultation, and counseling to our patients.




    St. Vincent Healthcare is part of SCL Health, a faith-based, nonprofit healthcare organization that focuses on person-centered care. Our 286-bed level II trauma center has provided care in Montana and the surrounding area since 1898, and our 30-clinic network ensures community needs are met.

    Benefits are one of the ways we encourage health for you and your family. Our generous package includes medical, dental and vision coverage. But health is more than a well-working body: it encompasses body, mind and social well-being. To that end, we’ve launched a Healthy Living program to address your holistic health.

    We.




    Together we’ll align mission and careers, values and workplace. We’ll honor each other’s dignity and surpass the standards we set. We’ll encourage joy, demand safety and take pride in our integrity.




    We’ll laugh at each other’s jokes (even the bad ones). We’ll hello and high five. We’ll celebrate milestones and acknowledge the value of spirituality in healing.




    We’re proud of what we know, which includes how much there is to learn.




    Your day.

    • Conduct prenatal breastfeeding classes and evaluate educational outcomes. Deliver appropriate education for patient and patient support/family.


    • Provide outpatient care, consultation and home visits for families experiencing breastfeeding difficulties.


    • Act as clinical expert/resource for staff on subjects related to lactation including the current standards of practice. Facilitate the development of policies which protect, promote, and support breastfeeding.


    • Participate in the development of educational programs and assess the educational needs of health care providers.




    Your experience.




    We hire people, not resumes. But we also expect excellence, which is why we require:





    • Graduate of an accredited school of nursing, required


    • ASN / ADN from an accredited program with the ability to obtain your BSN from an accredited program within five (5) years of hire, required
