  • Sedate, circulate, and document bedside procedures, including CV and TEE.
  • Discharge patients, ensuring proper teaching, documentation, and physical discharge procedures are followed.
Qualifications
  • Current Registered Nurse license in Arizona or a compact state.
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) certification.
  • Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) certification.
  • At least 2 years of nursing experience; consideration given for backgrounds in PACU, ICU, telemetry, Cath lab, or surgery centers on a case-by-case basis.
