Job Title: Medical-Surgical Telemetry Registered Nurse (MS Tele RN)

Job Summary

A Medical-Surgical Telemetry Registered Nurse (MS Tele RN) provides patient care for adults with acute medical conditions, post-surgical needs, and those requiring telemetry monitoring. The MS Tele RN monitors patients’ cardiac rhythms, administers medications, and collaborates with a multidisciplinary team to deliver high-quality care in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities

The MS Tele RN assesses, plans, implements, and evaluates nursing care for patients with acute or chronic conditions. This includes monitoring patients’ vital signs and cardiac telemetry readings for abnormalities or arrhythmias, administering medications, treatments, and interventions as prescribed by the physician, and using telemetry equipment to continuously monitor and interpret cardiac rhythms. They identify and respond to changes in patients’ cardiac rhythms or vital signs, reporting significant findings to the physician or rapid response team promptly.

In addition to monitoring, the MS Tele RN maintains accurate and detailed patient records, including assessments, interventions, and outcomes, while documenting telemetry monitoring findings and nursing actions in accordance with hospital policies. They work closely with physicians, case managers, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals to coordinate patient care. Educating patients and their families about medical conditions, treatments, and post-discharge care, as well as providing emotional support to those dealing with serious or life-changing conditions, is an integral part of the role.

The MS Tele RN recognizes and responds to signs of patient deterioration or emergency situations such as cardiac arrest, participating in rapid response or code blue events, and performing life-saving interventions such as CPR or defibrillation when necessary. Ensuring patient safety by adhering to infection control protocols and medication administration guidelines is essential. The MS Tele RN also advocates for patients’ needs and ensures their rights are respected, while managing high-acuity patients and prioritizing care effectively.

Qualifications

The MS Tele RN must have an active Registered Nurse (RN) license in the practicing state and an Associate’s Degree in Nursing (ADN) or Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN). Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) certifications are required, and Telemetry Nurse Certification is preferred. Previous experience in medical-surgical or telemetry nursing is ideal, although new graduates with strong clinical skills and telemetry training may be considered.
