Two hospitals in the UNC Health Care system in North Carolina will swap from Meditech to Epic during an EMR conversion in the fall.

The go-live dates for Epic at Wayne UNC Health Care in Goldsboro and Nash Health Care in Rocky Mount is September 22. The facilities are the latest in the hospital system’s efforts to convert all their facilities to Epic since 2014.

The hospitals are anticipating needs in at least these specialties; MedSurg/Telemetry, ICU, ER, and OR. Travel nurses looking to apply are expected to have both Meditech and Epic experience, at least 2 years of experience in their specialty, and some previous travel assignment experience.
