Registered Nurse, IMC Step-Down/ Cardiac Unit - PRN

DescriptionThe IMC Step-Down/Cardiac Unit is a 36-private bed unit that specializes in cardiac care for patients who have had open heart surgery. We see cardiovascular/thoracic patients and families that are post CABG, heart caths, valve replacements, thoracotomies, and many other cardiothoracic surgical procedures. We also see general medical surgical patients that may have a primary cardiac diagnosis/history with co-morbidities that may need telemetry monitoring, as well as those patients needing critical cardiac drips. On our unit, we train our staff to detect medical issues before they become a problem, so they can respond to those emergent situations quickly and confidently. We have many opportunities for assessments, patient/family teaching, IVs, wound care, lab value analysis and medication administration/ management. Our beds are in high demand, are typically full, and our staff is rarely cancelled. We offer flexible scheduling and promote a team environment. We encourage communication and collaboration in an environment that is engaging and rewarding for our health care professionals, as well the patients on our unit.  Summary: A Registered Professional Nurse is responsible for the delivery of patient care through the process of assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation and evaluation.
