This role operates under the guidance of a Nurse Manager who oversees administrative duties, provides general direction, organizes work assignments, manages schedules, approves leave requests, and conducts performance assessments.
Key Responsibilities:
The RN is responsible for providing direct care to patients with complex medical conditions, including those requiring chemotherapy and telemetry monitoring. The medical conditions addressed include, but are not limited to, pulmonary issues, cardiology, infectious diseases, oncology, neurology, and hematology.
The nurse is accountable for all aspects of the nursing process while delivering and supervising patient care. This includes assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating care tailored to the patient's age and specific needs.
The RN coordinates care with a focus on ensuring smooth transitions for patients throughout their care journey, providing education to patients and families, and supporting self-management post-discharge, while also considering factors that influence patient satisfaction.
Medication Administration:

Performance Standards:
Core performance elements include knowledge and active engagement in quality improvement initiatives at the unit or program level, as well as participation in customer service programs.
