Job Description
We are seeking a skilled and compassionate Registered Nurse (RN) to join our Progressive Care Unit (PCU) team.

Responsibilities
- Assess, monitor, and document patients' conditions, vital signs, and responses to treatment.
- Provide nursing care to patients with complex medical conditions requiring continuous or frequent monitoring.
- Monitor cardiac rhythms, recognize changes in patient status, and respond promptly to clinical deterioration.
- Administer medications, IV therapies, and prescribed treatments according to physician orders and facility protocols.
- Monitor patients with cardiac, respiratory, and other acute medical conditions within the unit's scope of care.
- Perform comprehensive nursing assessments and develop, implement, and evaluate individualized care plans.
- Collaborate with physicians, respiratory therapists, and other healthcare professionals to coordinate patient care.
- Recognize changes in clinical status and escalate concerns promptly to the appropriate healthcare team.
- Maintain accurate and timely documentation in the electronic medical record (EMR).
- Educate patients and families about diagnoses, treatments, medications, and discharge instructions.
- Follow infection prevention practices, patient safety standards, and hospital policies.
- Assist with patient transfers, admissions, discharges, and transitions of care as needed.
