Welcome to Nursing Affairs
 

Nursing care at each of our facilities is built on a long standing tradition of providing quality patient care and public health services for nearly 10 million residents. Department of Health Services (DHS) is the second largest public health system in the nation.

Our team of highly skilled and highly trained medical and nursing professionals work in collaboration with members of the health care team in achieving the best possible outcomes for our patients. An interdisciplinary team plans and directs the provision of care throughout the continuum from admission through discharge and facilitates referrals with appropriate resources and agencies.

There are four hospitals and one rehabilitation center within our health system:

LAC + USC Healthcare Network

Martin Luther King, Jr. Multi-Service Ambulatory Care Center
ValleyCare Olive View - UCLA Medical Center & Health Centers

The department also runs a multi-disciplinary ambulatory care center High Desert Health System in the Antelope Valley and six comprehensive health centers.

We are happy to provide you with this overview of the nursing opportunities within the Department of Health Services, and we welcome your interest in our facilities.
