Must-Have:

EPIC experience required. Must have ACLS, ventilator management, vasoactive drips, and experience with multiple medications.

Description:The nursing staff should not be scheduled every weekend unless previously discussed during the interview or specifically requested by the traveler. Scheduling is done monthly and is dependent on the needs of the unit. Travelers will generally not be scheduled more than every other weekend. A weekend for night shift typically includes Friday and Saturday nights, with a requirement to work every Sunday. The unit has mixed ICU/CCU beds and intermediate (stepdown) beds. In low census situations, staff will float to medical-surgical wards, taking turns as needed. CCU nurse-to-patient ratio is 2:1, and Tele nurse-to-patient ratio is 4:1. There are no aides available during the night shift. The unit does not manage hemodynamics other than arterial lines and central venous pressure lines. The focus is on ventilators, temporary pacemakers, and outsourced acute dialysis. There are mostly medical and abdominal surgeries performed, with no neuro or cardiac surgeries. Cancellation of one shift is permitted every four weeks.
