Responsibilities
Monitor high-acuity patients in a 28-bed ICU as part of the Level 1 Stroke and Cardiac Center after extensive injury, surgery, or life-threatening disease.

Assess, plan, and implement nursing care while ensuring patient comfort; anticipate and respond to informational and emotional needs of patients and families; guide and direct healthcare personnel in caring for patients; maintain knowledge of equipment setup, maintenance, and use (e.g., IV pumps, monitoring equipment, drainage devices). Utilize safeguards such as IV pump drug libraries and monitor alarms; initiate emergency support measures (e.g., cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and protect patients from injury. Participate in shift handoffs: begin with a brief team huddle, receive report from the off-going shift, and provide continued care per the care plan. Assist physicians with procedures (e.g., chest tube or central line), provide wound care, coordinate imaging (MRI/CT), and administer medications as needed. Multitask effectively, remain focused and attentive while continuously monitoring patients, and advocate for patients’ best interests. Exercise sound judgment in critical moments to ensure patient safety and quality care. Qualifications
Current WA State RN license required. Two (2) or more years of recent Critical Care experience preferred. EKG Monitor Validation & ACLS required within 90 days of hire. Graduation from an accredited school of nursing approved by the Washington State Board of Nursing.

Additional Preferred Qualifications: Open Heart experience; Interventional Cardiology experience and device experience; CCRN. Virginia Mason offers much more than competitive compensation and benefits. With continuing education opportunities and potential relocation assistance, our commitment to your well-being is rewarding and refreshing. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer.
