The traveler should be proficient in foley insertion/care, feeding tubes, and cardiac rhythm interpretation. Experience with titrating drips such as Cardizem, Amiodarone, Insulin, and Argatroban will require manager approval if not previously held. Support on the unit includes a Health Unit Coordinator available during the day and Certified Nursing Assistants for basic care tasks. Charge nurses take patient assignments, which may vary from full to reduced. Phlebotomy services are available for peripheral lab draws.
