Position Overview:

Greenlife Healthcare Staffing is currently seeking a Registered Nurse (PACU) to fill an opening at a hospital located in Marrero, LA.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Assess and monitor post-surgical patients upon arrival to PACU, including airway patency, breathing, circulation (ABCs), vital signs, oxygen saturation, level of consciousness, and surgical site(s).
  • Manage emergence from general anesthesia, regional blocks (spinal, epidural), and monitored anesthesia care (MAC).
  • Administer medications for pain control, nausea, shivering, and blood pressure management as ordered.
  • Monitor for and respond to immediate post-op complications including respiratory depression, laryngospasm, hypotension, hypertension, bleeding, or anaphylaxis.
  • Assess and manage incision sites, dressings, drains (Jackson-Pratt, Hemovac), chest tubes, and urinary catheters.
  • Communicate effectively with anesthesia providers and surgeons regarding patient status, vital sign trends, and any concerns.
  • Use sedation scales (e.g., Aldrete score, RASS) to determine readiness for discharge from PACU to the next level of care (Med/Surg, Stepdown, ICU, or Phase II discharge home).
  • Educate patients and families on post-procedure expectations, pain management, activity restrictions, and follow-up care.
  • Document all assessments, interventions, medications, and discharge criteria in the EMR accurately and promptly.
