Welcome to Shands Lake Shore Hospital Nursing Services and Patient Care. As you browse through the online information, I invite you to imagine yourself as an employee of our 99-bed community hospital. Members of our nursing staff work in a variety of settings and roles, providing high-quality, patient-centered care in an environment that supports and promotes safety, healing, and well-being.

As part of the Shands Healthcare System, our nurses are committed to finding the best ways to provide the finest care to our patients and community.  And, because we are part of an academic healthcare system, our nurses have unique professional and learning experiences available to them.

We work with the Lake City Community College and the University of Florida to expand nursing knowledge, to promote scholarship, and to increase recognition and support of faculty and staff with the college and university environment.

I hope you will consider us when you are making your next career decision.
