Responsibilities
Accepting New Grads and experienced Registered Nurses!
The CCU/IU nurse monitors the overall hemodynamic status of the
critically ill patient while performing head to toe assessments,
assessing all body systems, rhythms and invasive lines, tubes and
drains. In the CCU and IU, the Registered Nurse is expected to
administer, titrate and monitor critically ill patients on critical
medications. Many of these patients are post-surgical and require
intense monitoring. They are able to communicate appropriately with
the physicians and surgeons any concerning status changes or body
system specifics that may require further intervention. CCU/IU
nurses operate and are trained on life saving advanced medical
equipment including but not limited to ventilators, Intra-Aortic
Balloon pumps, Assistive Heart pumps, Continuous Dialysis machines,
Hypothermia induction and maintenance devices, defibrillators and
others. CCU/IU Nurses are required to stay current with both BLS
and ACLS certifications.
The Registered Nurse in CCU functions in units we call pods. This
design allows the OHH nurse to maintain a 1:1 or 1:2 nurse patient
ratio in the Critical Care Department and a 1:3 nurse patient ratio
in the Interventional Unit. This allows CCU/IU nurses adequate time
to monitor and care for critically ill patients thus ensuring the
highest quality, safe and patient-focused care.
Qualifications
Education:Graduate of an accredited school of nursing program.
Experience:Minimum of one (1) year of continuous experience in
telemetry or related cardiac clinical setting preferred.
Licensure/Certification:
As part of our nursing team, you are empowered to work
collaboratively with our physicians and other caregivers, and play
an integral role in setting the standard for excellence in patient
care. With low, fixed nurse-to-patient ratios, our nursing team has
time to get to know their patients and their families while
providing the highest quality, safe, patient-focused care. Patient
rooms are fully stocked with all necessary supplies and arranged in
a circular, pod layout around each nursing station to streamline
patient care and save our nursing team time.
