The RN will provide specialized care to veterans with complex, acute, and chronic conditions requiring close monitoring and intermediate-level nursing support. The RN delivers evidence-based, patient-centered care, including cardiac monitoring, medication administration, and coordination of multidisciplinary treatment plans. This role emphasizes critical thinking, rapid response to changes in patient condition, and collaboration with physicians and healthcare teams to promote optimal recovery and patient safety.
The Progressive Care Unit Registered Nurse (PCU RN) is responsible for delivering high-quality, patient-centered care to veterans requiring intermediate-level monitoring and treatment. Core duties include performing thorough patient assessments, administering and titrating medications, monitoring cardiac and hemodynamic status, and promptly responding to changes in patient condition.
