Job Description
A Registered Nurse (RN) - Long Term Care provides comprehensive nursing care to residents in long-term care facilities, such as nursing homes or assisted living centers. The RN is responsible for managing the overall care of residents, including assessments, care planning, medication administration, treatment, and coordination of care. The RN works closely with other healthcare professionals, family members, and caregivers to ensure residents maintain a high quality of life, have their medical needs addressed, and are supported with both their physical and emotional well-being.
Key Responsibilities:
- Patient Assessment and Care Planning:
- Conduct thorough initial assessments of new residents upon admission, evaluating their medical history, current condition, and specific care needs.
- Collaborate with the interdisciplinary team (doctors, therapists, social workers) to develop and implement individualized care plans that address each resident's medical, emotional, and psychological needs.
- Continuously assess residents' conditions and adjust care plans as necessary to reflect changes in health status, medications, or functional abilities.
- Medication Management:
- Administer prescribed medications to residents, ensuring correct dosages, timely administration, and proper documentation.
- Monitor residents for medication side effects, allergies, or adverse reactions and notify the healthcare provider when necessary.
- Educate residents and their families about the medications, their purposes, and potential side effects.
- Clinical Care and Treatments:
- Provide routine nursing care, such as wound care, catheter care, dressing changes, and managing chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or respiratory issues.
- Assist with activities of daily living (ADLs) as needed, such as bathing, dressing, and feeding residents who are unable to perform these tasks independently.
- Monitor vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, temperature, respiratory rate) and report any significant changes to the physician or care team.
- Manage and monitor residents' pain levels, ensuring effective pain management strategies are in place.
- Resident and Family Education:
- Educate residents and their families about health conditions, treatments, medications, and ways to manage chronic conditions.
- Offer guidance on lifestyle changes, nutrition, mobility, and other self-care practices that promote health and comfort.
- Provide emotional and psychological support to residents and their families, addressing any concerns about care or health status.
- Teach families how to assist with caregiving tasks, such as repositioning, transferring, and helping with physical therapy exercises.
- Care Coordination and Advocacy:
- Coordinate and communicate with the broader care team to ensure residents receive comprehensive care across multiple disciplines (e.g., physical therapy, nutrition, social work).
- Advocate for the needs and preferences of residents, ensuring their care plans are followed and that they receive appropriate care in a timely manner.
- Monitor and respond to changes in residents' mental and emotional well-being, ensuring they have access to appropriate mental health resources or counseling if needed.
- Documentation and Reporting:
- Maintain accurate, up-to-date records of residents' conditions, treatment plans, and interventions.
- Document all interactions with residents, medication administration, changes in health status, and any concerns or incidents that occur.
- Ensure compliance with all regulatory requirements, including HIPAA standards, by maintaining confidential and thorough documentation.
- Complete assessments, care plan updates, and progress notes in a timely manner to ensure all care is well-documented.
- Emergency Response and Crisis Management:
- Respond to medical emergencies, including sudden changes in condition, falls, or adverse reactions to treatments.
- Provide immediate care in emergency situations, such as CPR, first aid, or other life-saving measures, until additional medical support arrives.
- Monitor residents at risk for falls, dehydration, or infections, and implement preventative measures to reduce risks.
- Compliance and Quality Assurance:
- Ensure that care provided meets all federal, state, and facility regulations, policies, and standards.
- Participate in quality improvement initiatives to enhance the overall care experience for residents and improve outcomes.
- Ensure that residents' rights, including dignity, privacy, and autonomy, are respected at all times.
- Leadership and Staff Supervision:
- Supervise and mentor nursing assistants and other support staff, providing guidance on care tasks and assisting with skill development.
- Assist in delegating tasks and managing shifts to ensure that care delivery is efficient and meets the needs of all residents.
- Participate in staff meetings and contribute to discussions regarding resident care and facility improvements.
