This position involves providing ICU coverage at the Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center, specifically within the Community Living Center (CLC) Inpatient unit. The CLC Short Stay Skilled inpatient program is designed to offer short-term, post-acute skilled nursing and rehabilitation services to patients who require intensive clinical care and therapy following hospitalization, surgery, or acute illness. The CLC aims to provide Veterans with a homelike setting, featuring private or semi-private rooms, therapy gyms, and adaptive equipment. This model emphasizes rehabilitation, recovery, and a safe transition to home or a community setting, rather than long-term custodial care. Patients served are medically stable but require skilled nursing interventions, intensive rehabilitation therapies, monitoring, and support for chronic conditions during their recovery. Core services include 24/7 Skilled Nursing Care, Rehabilitation Therapies (physical, occupational, and speech therapy integrated into daily routines), Interdisciplinary Care Planning (regular team meetings to review progress and adjust care plans), and Discharge Planning (coordination with outpatient services, home health, and community resources). All RNs assigned to CLC inpatient under this contract will be required to float between units based on staffing needs.
