Job Description

Registered Nurse – Cardiac Tower & Progressive Care Unit

Wausau, WI | Full-Time | Multiple Shifts Available

Step Into a New Era of Cardiac Nursing

Aspirus is seeking Registered Nurses (RNs) to join our newly expanded, state-of-the-art Cardiac Tower and Progressive Care Unit (PCU) in Wausau, WI.

This is more than a traditional bedside nursing opportunity. It’s a chance to work with complex cardiothoracic and post-surgical patients, gain high-acuity clinical experience, and develop advanced skills in a modern cardiac care environment.

Whether you're an experienced RN ready for your next challenge or a new graduate looking to build a strong clinical foundation, this opportunity offers hands-on learning, supportive teamwork, and room to grow.

Why RNs Are Excited About This Opportunity

  • Newly expanded Cardiac Tower with modern technology and workspaces
  • Gain high-acuity, ICU-level clinical exposure in a PCU setting
  • Care for complex cardiothoracic and post-surgical patients
  • Build experience with IV drips, chest tubes, central lines, and advanced telemetry
  • Work alongside experienced nurses and interdisciplinary care teams
  • Opportunities to advance into Charge RN and specialty leadership roles
  • Multiple shift options available
  • New graduates and experienced RNs welcome

What You’ll Gain

  • Advanced cardiac and high-acuity nursing experience
  • Exposure to complex patient conditions and interventions
  • Experience managing patients in a high-acuity PCU environment
  • Opportunities for continued professional and clinical growth

What You’ll Do

  • Provide safe, compassionate care to complex cardiothoracic and post-surgical patients
  • Monitor high-acuity patients and recognize changes in condition
  • Manage IV drips, chest tubes, central lines, and advanced telemetry
  • Respond quickly and appropriately to changes in patient status
  • Collaborate with physicians and interdisciplinary care teams
  • Deliver patient-centered care focused on quality outcomes

What We’re Looking For

  • Current RN license in Wisconsin or compact-state eligibility
  • Interest in cardiac, high-acuity, or critical care nursing
  • Strong clinical judgment, communication, and teamwork skills
  • BLS certification required
  • ACLS preferred; training may be available if needed
  • New graduate and experienced RNs are encouraged to apply
