SouthEast Alaska Regional Health Consortium

It is one of the oldest and largest Native-run health organizations in the United States. SEARHC began contracting with the Indian Health Service (IHS) in 1976, taking over management of the Community Health Aides Program, followed by the Juneau clinic (now Ethel Lund Medical Center) in 1982, and Sitka's Mt. Edgecumbe Hospital in 1986. The consortium provides comprehensive healthcare services including outpatient ambulatory care, hospital services, and community health programs across the region. For nurses, SEARHC offers opportunities to deliver culturally sensitive, patient-centered care in both outpatient clinic and hospital settings. The organization emphasizes care across the lifespan and collaboration with interdisciplinary teams and providers. The posted RN role in Juneau is an ambulatory position with a standard Monday through Friday, 8am-5pm schedule, offering a pay range of $41.66-$58.69 per hour, along with a $25,000 sign-on bonus and $10,000 relocation assistance for qualified hires. Working at SEARHC means serving Alaska Native communities in a remote and geographically unique region, which presents both professional rewards and logistical challenges.
