Registered Nurse - Cardiac ICU

Eligible up to $15k sign-on bonus - Cardiac ICU RN - Forsyth Medical Center

The Registered Nurse serves as a leader of the healthcare team at Novant Health.

The CICU (Cardiac Intensive Care Unit)  is a 24 bed Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit. Our typical patient ratio is 1:2 with certain patients being cared for as a 1:1 (CRRT, Impella).

• CICU specializes in the care of STEMI, Heart Failure, Cardiogenic Shock, and Vascular surgery patients. However, we have capacity to care for any patient that requires ICU level of care.
• Specialty equipment only utilized in CICU: Impella, IABP (intra aortic balloon pump), EKOS, TVP (temporary venous pacemaker), and PA catheter.

What makes our unit different?

• Opportunities for growth: Team leader (charge RN) and Rapid Response Nurse
• Flexibility: our unit is self-scheduling and ANMs/NM only tweaks to balance numbers
• Team work: Our unit functions like a Nascar pit crew who descend upon a patient to care for them.

Requirements:

• Graduate of an accredited school of nursing
• Current RN licensure in appropriate state
• One year relevant experience

Come join a remarkable team where quality care meets quality service in every dimension, every time.
