• Providing intraoperative support for oral and maxillofacial surgery in the office and at Inova Fairfax Hospital
• Supporting patients through postoperative care and follow-up
• Serving as the lead clinical point of contact for patients and staff

What Sets This Role Apart

• Stable, predictable hours (Mon-Thu 8A-5P, Fri 8A-4P) - no nights, weekends, or rotating shifts
• Opportunity to assist with advanced anesthesia and surgical procedures both in-office and in the OR
• The chance to grow into a leadership position in a highly specialized practice
• Exposure to some of the most advanced TMJ and jaw surgeries performed anywhere in the world
• A practice culture built on trust, collaboration, and meaningful relationships

Requirements

• Active RN license (Virginia) or Certified EMT with clinical and IV experience
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills with patients and colleagues

• Retirement plan with employer match (starting 2026)
• Mentorship and growth opportunities in a unique, cutting-edge surgical environment

If you are an RN or EMY looking for a stable schedule, a leadership role, and the opportunity to assist in some of the most advanced jaw surgeries in the world, we'd love to hear from you.
