Employee Referral Program

Get paid to refer qualified candidates to Dameron Hospital!

Do you know an outstanding individual who would be a great fit for the Dameron Hospital team? If you know someone who you think would be a great addition to our organization, it could be worth a substantial bonus to you if you refer them for employment and they are hired.

We are currently looking for qualified, experienced registered nurses (RN’s) for full-time positions within our ICU, Telemetry or Resource departments.

Research has shown that new hires who come to an organization through employee referrals are often excellent contributors, have a greater level of engagement, and stay with the company longer.

That’s where you come in!

The purpose of the Dameron Employee Referral Program is to partner with our most valuable resource – YOU! You know our culture, know the type of person that would succeed here, and most of all, you know people. This program allows us to share in the success of identifying the right talent for the right job with your help.

Any Dameron Hospital employee can refer someone to join us. Best of all, there’s no limit to the number of referrals, so start referring people today!

Before you refer your candidate, however, we ask that you review the full guidelines and FAQs below before submitting an application form.

If you have questions, please contact Human Resources at extension 7073 or HumanResources@dameronhospital.org.

Once you have read and understood the guidelines and qualifications, please complete the form below.

Program Guidelines

The Dameron Hospital Employee Referral Program is intended to recognize and reward employees who successfully refer qualified, experienced registered nurses (RN’s) to our organization that lead to a hire for a full-time position within the ICU, Telemetry, or Resource departments.

All active Dameron Hospital employees are encouraged to refer a candidate. However, not all employees are eligible to receive a referral bonus. Human Resources and Administration employees are not eligible for the bonus program.

• The referring employee cannot be involved in the hiring process or have a direct reporting relationship to the candidate.
  
  
• The referral bonus is not retroactive and is specific to the hire of a qualified, experienced registered nurse who fills a full-time position.
  
  
• The referral bonus is not available to the referral of a new graduate nurse.
  
  
• The referral bonus is not available for referred nurses who are hired into part-time or per-diem positions. The referral bonus is applicable to full-time positions only.
  
  
• If the referred employee terminates employment with Dameron Hospital, there will be no further pay-out of the referral bonus.
  
  
• If the referred employee does not satisfactorily complete the on-boarding process, the referring employee is not eligible for pay-out of the referral bonus.
  
  
• If the referred employee transitions out of a full-time working status, the referring employee will no longer be eligible for remaining referral bonus pay-outs.
  
  
• There is no limit to the amount of qualified registered nurses that can be referred by a specific employee.

• Referred candidates who have been identified as former applicants through the Dameron Hospital application system will be considered eligible referrals as long as their profile has not been active within the past 3 months.
  
  
• If more than one employee refers the same person, the first referral received will be honored.
  
  
• Submitting an unsolicited resume or one from an advertisement is not considered a valid referral. In the true spirit of the referral, your recommendation is to be based on your knowledge of the candidate.
