  • Administer medications, IV therapies, titratable drips, and blood products per provider orders
  • Monitor and respond to changes in patient condition promptly
  • Collaborate with physicians, respiratory therapists, case management, and interdisciplinary teams
  • Support patient stabilization, recovery, or transition to the next level of care
  • Educate patients and families on disease processes and long‐term treatment plans
  • Maintain strict adherence to infection control and patient safety protocols
  • Document assessments, interventions, and outcomes accurately in the medical record

What We’re Looking For

  • Active RN license in the state of practice
  • Minimum of 1 year of recent LTAC, ICU, Step‐Down, or acute care hospital RN experience required
  • BLS certification required (ACLS preferred)
  • Strong critical‐thinking and clinical decision‐making skills
  • Experience caring for ventilator‐dependent or medically complex patients
  • Ability to manage high‐acuity patients in a fast‐paced environment
  • Excellent communication and interdisciplinary teamwork skills

Why You’ll Love This Opportunity
You’ll care for patients who benefit from consistency and advanced nursing expertise—working closely with skilled interdisciplinary teams while enjoying the flexibility of per diem scheduling with consistent 12‐hour day or night shifts .
