The candidate can expect a patient to nurse ratio of 4 : 1 and, during periods of low census, may be asked to cross train into the adult medical surgical unit. Compassion and a gentle demeanor are a necessity. The nursing staff must provide countless hours of education for the young parents of these children. Support staff is available on this unit, allowing you to spend as much time as possible with your patients. This position will require you to work every other weekend. Pediatric advanced life support certification is preferred, but can be obtained through our Career Institute free of change for employees. Learn More
