Job Description:

Job Description: Unit Information: We are a unit with immense learning opportunities. We care for a full-spectrum of medical diagnoses and comorbidities including diabetes, infectious diseases, electrolyte imbalances, gastroenterological (GI) disease processes, respiratory, cardiac, kidney, and liver dysfunctions. We also specialize in telemetry, or real-time, continuous monitoring of cardiac heart rhythms. Patient Care Technicians (PCTs) and RNs on this floor can become telemetry certified and participate in observing cardiac rhythms. This is a foundational skill that will be a crucial step in building healthcare knowledge. Due to the exposure our caregivers get to a wide variety of medical ailments, our floor serves as a great entry point for new nurses and technicians who may later decide to move into a more specialized area of care. It also serves as a great launch point for caregivers who may want to later move into Intensive Care or Emergency. We have many long-term caregivers who find the variability and diversity of our patients to be both stimulating and rewarding. Our team is supportive, flexible, and ready to embrace new team members, and we are committed to providing leadership and growth opportunities for caregivers who desire to excel. We would love for you to join our team!
