description

Our client is expanding their nursing team for the Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU). Here they take care of critically ill patients who are in need of or are recovering from a surgery.

Unlike other departments, at ICU nurses work with unstable patients that most often face life-threatening conditions. A patient is considered unstable when their respiratory or cardiovascular systems require constant monitoring due to their weak state. Though the daily tasks mostly remain the same for nurses, each day is unpredictable and can result in an ICU intervention in case the patient’s body system abruptly stops.

Ensuring that ventilators, monitors, and other types of medical equipment function properly;
