3 weeks ago


Dayton, Ohio, United States Travel Nurse Across America Full time

Travel Nurse Across America is seeking a travel nurse RN for a position in the Progressive Care Unit (PCU) at a hospital in Dayton, Ohio.

The ideal candidate will have 1-2 years of recent acute care experience and be able to work 12 hour shifts, 36 hours per week, with nights being the primary shift.

As a PCU travel nurse, you will care for patients who require close monitoring and frequent assessment, but aren't unstable enough to need ICU care.

The PCU RN will utilize computer equipment to monitor cardiac and other vital information, detecting any changes and thereby enabling intervention of life-threatening or emergency situations.

Close observation is necessary as many PCU patients receive a significant amount of complex medications, sometimes through an intravenous line that may need to be adjusted or titrated.

The PCU RN is sometimes also called a step-down nurse, and the PCU is also known as cardiac stepdown, medical stepdown, neuro stepdown, surgical stepdown and ER holding.

Responsibilities of the PCU travel nurse include:

  • Providing basic bedside care and stabilizing critical cardiac patients
  • Changing dressings, inserting catheters and starting IVs
  • Preparing, administering and recording prescribed medication, reporting any adverse reactions to treatment
  • Monitoring and adjusting specialized equipment used on patients, and interpreting and recording electronic displays
  • Initiating corrective action whenever information from monitoring equipment shows adverse symptomatology

The PCU travel nurse should be able to stand and walk for long periods of time, as well as bend, lean and stoop without difficulty.

RNs should be able to easily lift 20 pounds. Moving or lifting of patients may require lifting of up to 50 pounds at times.

Because of the fast-paced environment, Progressive Care Unit RNs must possess good skills for coping with stress and be able to relate to people of all ages and backgrounds.

Requirements for the PCU travel nurse include:

  • ACLS, BLS, NIH, 2 Years

Additional certifications may be required before beginning an assignment.

Pay package is based on 12 hour shifts and 36 hours per week (subject to confirmation) with tax-free stipend amount to be determined.
