Overview:
Patient ratio is 6 patients to 1 nurse. Cardiac is a medical/telemetry floor taking post op CABG/open heart patients as soon as day 1 following surgery, TAVRs, Watchmen and other post cath-lab intervention patients (stents, AIF, etc.) but they will never have a sheath, they may come to us with a radial band. None of our patients are on vasoactive drips but we do take amio, cardizem and other cardiac drips and do titrate down to wean. Many of our patients have chest tubes. Acuity is really varied, some patients are simply needing their medications adjusted and have to be supervised in the hospital with serial EKGs but otherwise are completely independent, some of our patients are very complex and sick but based on our treatments/interventions are still appropriate for our floor.
Qualifications:
- Education: Graduate of an approved school of nursing required
- Licensure: Current licensure by the Arkansas State Board of Nursing
- Certifications: Current Basic Life Support Certification through an American Heart Association approved program
