Job Details

Job Summary and Responsibilities

As our Medical/Surgical ICU Registered Nurse (RN), you will help critically ill or injured medical and surgical patients receive constant, specialized care so they can stabilize, recover from acute conditions or surgical interventions, and safely progress through their hospital stay.

Everyday you will continuously monitor vital signs, manage complex life-support equipment, and precisely adjust powerful medications across a diverse range of medical and surgical diagnoses. You will be expected to collaborate on comprehensive screenings, conduct critical risk assessments (including post-operative complications), provide vital preventative health education (tailored to complex medical and surgical conditions), and expertly coordinate care for diverse, unstable patient populations, leveraging advanced technology to streamline processes.

To be successful in this role, you must combine robust clinical knowledge in both medical and surgical critical care, advanced technological proficiency (e.g., hemodynamics, post-op drains), genuine compassion, strong communication skills (including with families regarding prognoses and surgical recovery), and an adaptable approach to learning and patient-centered care.

Responsibilities:

• Continuous Advanced Monitoring & Assessment: Conduct frequent comprehensive assessments of medical and surgical ICU patients, utilizing advanced equipment (e.g., hemodynamic monitoring, continuous cardiac monitoring) to track vital signs, oxygen levels, and neurological status, and proactively identifying life-threatening situations and post-operative complications.
• Precise Medication Administration & Titration: Safely administer medications via various routes, constantly titrating strong drugs (e.g., vasopressors, sedatives, insulin drips) based on real-time lab results and patient response, and managing complex medication regimens for both medical and surgical critical care patients.
• Life-Support & Advanced Equipment Management: Oversee and manage a wide array of life-support equipment, including mechanical ventilators, CRRT/dialysis equipment, intra-aortic balloon pumps, and specialized surgical drains/catheters, ensuring optimal function and patient safety.
• Comprehensive Wound, Drain, & Post-Surgical Care: Provide meticulous care for complex surgical wounds (e.g., abdominal, thoracic, neurosurgical), manage various drains and tubes, and diligently monitor for signs of infection or post-operative complications specific to diverse surgical procedures.
• Interdisciplinary Team Collaboration & Complex Patient Planning: Work closely with intensivists, surgeons, anesthesiologists, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, and other specialists to build, update, and coordinate individualized care plans for both medical and post-surgical critical patients, ensuring seamless transitions of care.
• Patient & Family Support, Education & End-of-Life Care: Update doctors and family members on patient progress, provide crucial emotional support during difficult times, assist families in making complex medical and end-of-life choices, and educate them on disease processes, surgical recovery, and discharge planning for a diverse patient population.
