Job Title: Registered Nurse Profession: RN (Registered Nurse) Specialty: ICU (Intensive Care Unit) Duration: 13 weeks Shift: 12H Nights Hours per Shift: 12 Experience: Minimum of 1 year License: RN License required Certifications: BLS, ACLS, PALS Must-Have: Ventilator and trach experience required Description: The ICU is currently managing two units. One unit serves as the "Clean Unit" with a limited number of beds and ventilators. The other unit has beds designated for COVID-positive patients, where patients may require intubation and management of various drips. Candidates must have experience with ventilators and tracheostomies due to the high acuity and rapid deterioration of patients. Certification in BLS, ACLS, and PALS is required, with NIHSS and TNCC preferred. Although pediatric patients are accepted, the unit typically transfers critically ill minors to specialized facilities. The goal nurse-to-patient ratio in the ICU is 1:2, although staffing may occasionally reach 1:3 in low-acuity situations. In the PCU, the goal is a maximum of 1:4, however, ratios of 1:5 may occur depending on patient acuity. Registered nurses are expected to be flexible and may need to assist with basic care tasks. Every other weekend and holiday work is required, with holidays integrated into the permanent staff rotation. Scrubs are navy or black; specific scrubs may be required for COVID units. Registered nurses must possess the ability to interpret cardiac monitor strips. All critical care medication drips, including sedation, should be well understood. Emergency physician support is available 24/7 in-house. There is no dedicated IV team, but staff can assist with complex IV access. Respiratory therapy is available around the clock for ventilator management and related procedures. On-call pharmacy service is available 24/7. Shifts consist of 12-hour blocks, primarily from 7 pm to 7 am. Floating between units may be required, and all staff are expected to share this responsibility evenly. Initial orientation includes the hospital's charting system. Common patient diagnoses include COVID-19, DKA, sepsis, pulmonary edema, CHF, COPD, and others. Flexibility and adaptability to changing patient volumes and care needs are essential in this role.
