Registered Nurse (RN) - IMC Progressive Care (PRN)
Progressive Care is a 16 bed unit, sometimes referred to as a "Step-Down Unit" for patients who are recovering from critical conditions but still require close monitoring and more frequent assessments than a standard unit can offer. Our Progressive Care is dedicated in providing patient and family centered care, while collaborating with the healthcare team, including physicians/providers, specialists, case management, respiratory therapists, and more to ensure each patient receives the most complete care. Our low nurse to patient ratio, multiple nurse aides, and out of staffing charge nurse ensures quality care, frequent monitoring, and exceptional customer service.
