The RN will work collaboratively with the healthcare team to ensure the best possible outcomes for patients in the PCU setting.

    • Administer prescribed medications and treatments, including IV medications, pain management, and blood products.

    • Provide post-surgical care for patients who have undergone major surgery, including cardiovascular, neurological, or orthopedic procedures.
    • Manage patients with complex conditions, such as heart failure, respiratory distress, and diabetes.
  • Collaboration:
    • Work closely with physicians, nurse practitioners, and other healthcare professionals to develop and implement individualized care plans.
    • Participate in daily rounds and communicate with the team regarding patient condition, response to treatments, and any changes in care plans.
  • Patient Education:
    • Educate patients and families about the recovery process, treatment plans, medications, and any required lifestyle changes.
    • Provide guidance on managing chronic conditions, improving health, and preventing readmissions.
  • Documentation:
    • Accurately document all nursing interventions, patient assessments, outcomes, and any changes in condition using electronic health records (EHR).
    • Ensure compliance with all legal, regulatory, and hospital-specific documentation requirements.
  • Safety & Infection Control:
    • Follow infection control protocols and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize the risk of hospital-acquired infections.
    • Respond to changes in patient condition quickly and appropriately, including initiating emergency procedures if needed.
  • Emergency Response:
    • Recognize and respond promptly to emergencies, including code blue situations or significant changes in patient vital signs.
    • Perform advanced life support (ALS) or other emergency interventions as required.
  • Teamwork and Support:
    • Collaborate with PCU colleagues, support staff, and interdisciplinary teams to ensure safe and efficient patient care.
    • Serve as a resource to less experienced nursing staff and participate in mentoring or training initiatives.
  • Quality and Compliance:
    • Follow all hospital protocols and national standards to maintain high-quality care, safety, and patient satisfaction.
    • Participate in quality improvement activities and patient safety initiatives to enhance patient outcomes.
