Health Information Services Tech II

We are a high reliability organization with positive patient outcomes. Our board-certified physicians specialize in emergency medicine, internal medicine, urology, bariatric services, obstetrics/gynecology services, general surgery, orthopedic surgery and osteopathic treatment. Employees of St. Thomas More enjoy the camaraderie of a close-knit community hospital, the relaxed feel of small-town life and an affordable cost of living in a town rich in culture and historic architecture.

Located about 50 miles from Colorado Springs at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and the mouth of the Royal Gorge, locals and visitors alike enjoy this area for some of the state’s best hiking, wildlife, rafting, camping, fishing, climbing, and mountain biking. Canon City has an assortment of restaurants, and breweries, and Farmer’s Markets in the summer months.

We believe in cultivating our nurses from within and providing them with whatever experience and opportunities needed to reach their goals, including opportunities to partake in scholarship offerings. Relationships with our physicians and surgeons are also collaborative. Many of our physicians enjoy teaching and take the time to ensure all team members understand each patient’s plan of care. We look for candidates that have creative problem-solving skills, strong clinical skills, positive attitudes, are team focused, introspective, flexible, value teamwork, and have a patient centered attitude. Our clinical employees, once settled in their home department, cross train to at least one other specialty. We expect our employees to contribute to problem identification and creative solutions to encourage excellent clinical care and an excellent patient experience. We are all one team with a common goal of providing excellent patient care.
