Crosstrain RN opportunity between Pulmonary & Critical Care:
The Pulmonary Department is a 30-bed medical surgical unit and eight-bed progressive care unit equips nurses with fundamental critical care experience in mechanical ventilation, while providing a solid nursing foundation focused on safe patient outcomes.
Diagnosis in the pulmonary population ranges from pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congestive heart failure and pulmonary embolism to complex cases requiring nursing skills for oxygen therapy, intravenous medications, chest tubes, tracheostomies, postoperative care, non-invasive ventilation, mechanical ventilation and cardiac monitoring.
At Sanford Medical Center, the care of critically-ill adult patients occurs in three separate Critical Care units that are covered by the same nursing staff. Critical Care 2000 is a 12-bed pulmonary/medical critical care unit. Critical Care 3000 is a 15-bed trauma, surgical and neurocritical care unit. Critical Care 2800 is a 12-bed acuity adaptable unit for cardiothoracic and vascular surgery patients.
