Eligible Registered Nurses who want to participate in the Health Carousel Clinical Ladder are employees who hold a regular status position with a job title of "Staff Nurse", are providing direct patient care, and meet the following criteria:

• Unencumbered Nursing License
• Full time employment
• Nurse must be in good standing with the health care facility and Health Carousel International

Each ladder level has different requirements for advancement that will be communicated through our digital platform. There are minimum requirements that the nurse must meet in order to advance. All nurses who meet the eligible nurse requirements identified within this document may choose to participate in the Clinical Ladder Program.
‍
An application to the Clinical Ladder Program is required each year for advancement to be considered. Documentation of completed activities will be submitted through a digital education platform. While there is no guarantee of progression based on tenure, the nurse can advance ladder level in reflection of tenure.

There are bonuses and/or incentives specific at various points of the clinical ladder, in addition to Health Carousel paying for your nationality and/or specialty-specific professional organization membership.

If the review committee determines that an application does not meet criteria for advancement, the nurse will be notified and will have the opportunity to resubmit the application for review during next quarterly review.

The Health Carousel International Clinical Ladder Program is independent from any program that your hospital may have in place. Your participation in this program will have no impact on programs that are offered by the hospital.
