Staff RN-Med/Surg-Critical Care-Cardiac

Summary

Cardiac/Medical Registered Nurse (RN)

Your work matters here.

Working in the cardiac medical unit, you will care for patients with acute and chronic cardiovascular disease, acute and chronic respiratory failure, multi-system failure (may be related to sepsis), neurological impairment (stroke specifically), cardiac diagnostic and invasive procedures, renal impairment or failure and diabetic ketoacidosis.  

In our 25-bed, stroke certified unit RNs and CNAs work together in a 1:1 care model, where the RN is solely responsible for patient care. The unit treats cardiac, neuro, and stroke patients and we perform:

  • Heart catheterization
  • Pacemaker insertion
  • Ablations
  • Pulmonary vein isolation
  • Bedside procedures
  • Thoracentesis
  • Gastroenterological procedures

Here you will find a Nurse Manager, Assistant Nurse Manager, and Clinical Resource Nurse who round on patients daily and are able to provide feedback regarding their care and are always available to support you and help with patients when needed.

In addition to the desire to work in a diverse setting where every day is different – you may have an intense day with critical care patients, but also have general care patients that help balance the day – we require:

  • Current State of Nebraska RN licensure or approved compact RN licensure
  • BLS Certification

Join an exemplary team like no other – great employees, great caregivers and great co-workers. 

Apply today.
