Job ID: 11163

CVICU is a 28-bed post open heart intensive care unit. Our patients have had CABG, valve, Thoraco adominal, AAA or other type of vascular surgery. We are a recovery area and the patients are admitted to the unit, immediately post op. We make assignments according to patient acuity. We have 9 dedicated ORs and do an average of 2500 bypass cases per year. We have 16 surgeons and run off standing orders. We have Hewlett Packard Merlin Monitors with no central monitor, so nurses are responsible for staying at the bedside. We utilize Pleurovac and Emerson chest drainage systems and Gish cardiotomy reservoir for auto transfusion. Labs, x-rays, and ancillary services are ordered by computer. There is a satellite pharmacy and point of care lab open Monday through Friday 7a-11pm. Documentation is done on a tri-fold flow sheet with supplemental PIE charting. There is no mandatory OT in CVICU, but OT is available on an ongoing basis. We currently have full time, day shift openings on CVICU. Apply online and discover the possibilities at Florida Hospital. Sign on bonus and relocation assistance are available.
