Common diagnoses include ETOH, suicide, DKA, sepsis, respiratory issues, carotid endarterectomy, urology, post-surgical patients, open belly cases, AAA, and minor CVA without intervention. Higher neuro or cardiac cases are not admitted, and there is no cath lab on-site. RNs are required to titrate drips, including all common ICU drips. During the day shift, a designated charge nurse is present until 3:30 PM, followed by a house supervisor. During night shifts, the charge nurse oversees operations, with a hospitalist available 24/7 and an intensivist on-call during evenings and nights. Respiratory therapists are available 24/7, with always one in the ICU and a second therapist in-house. RNs must be proficient in reading and interpreting telemetry strips.
