RN Acute Care Cardiac Telemetry [3 South Day Shift]

Cardiac Telemetry Unit RN Opportunity

3 South is a 30-bed Acute Care Cardiac Telemetry Unit. RNs will be responsible for taking care of patients with significant history of cardiac disease, or related processes. We opened these positions to specifically help stabilize staffing for our 30-bed Cardiovascular Telemetry Unit. We are actively reimagining this space and starting over with zero core FTEs. These travelers will help with staffing, but very likely will be needed to help precept new hires as we recruit to fill the core positions [many of which will will be RN Residents]. Therefore, we will seek cardiac-trained RNs who also show a high degree of engagement and willingness to train others. Additionally, these RNs will be first to float primarily to one of five other acute care med/surg units [typically staffed at 5:1 guidelines].

Typical disease processes: Chest Pain, Congestive Heart Failure, Advanced Heart Failure, Syncope, patients requiring echocardiograms, stress tests, and/or diagnostic and interventional heart catheterization. Additionally, 3 South handles patients with other procedures such as: Mitraclip, Watchman, Tykosyn initiation, TAVR, etc. 3rd Floor will also overflow generalized med/surg patients as needed, or take care of other non-cardiac patients as required.
