Float Requirement
Travelers must be willing to float between the Akron Main Campus and the Summa location as needed. Please confirm the traveler’s willingness to float at the time of submission.
Travelers may also be assigned to support the Burn Center. The Burn Center primarily cares for patients who do not require intensive care; it is not exclusively an intensive care unit.
The facility cares for patients across a broad age range, including adults in the PICU. Patients may range in age up to 26, and the team evaluates congenital disease processes across the lifespan. Travelers must be comfortable caring for patients with varied ages, diagnoses, and acuity levels.
Float frequency will vary based on operational needs and cannot be guaranteed. Travelers will be supported by home-unit staff regardless of their assigned location. Travelers are expected to advocate for their learning needs, ask appropriate questions, and utilize available resources, consistent with the expectations for facility staff.
