Some of the major responsibilities includes participation in RN/CNA hand-off communications and unit huddles, timely collection and reporting of patient data, demonstrating safety protocols at all times, timely notification and escalation of data or clinical conditions, remaining alert and responsive to activities on the unit, and demonstrating a genuine care for the patient (paying a close attention to the basics), e.g., active listening, timely response, cultural sensitivity, individualized approach to care. This floor offers the practitioner the opportunity to impart lasting change on the lives of its patients through its team-based nursing approach, as well as through the close relationships forged between other services, including Physicians, Pharmacists, Physical Therapy, Respiratory, Speech-Language Pathology, and Case Management, all of whom play a crucial role in improving patient health and navigating the care continuum.
