About The Position

The Emergency Room Registered Nurse works in a 39-bed Emergency Department and provides emergency nursing care in a collaborative, supportive environment. The unit is committed to delivering high-quality, cost-effective community healthcare while valuing each individual. Team collaboration and respect are essential, and the position offers opportunities for professional growth and development.

The nurse is expected to be skilled at multitasking and maintaining patient throughput, work effectively with the care team, and assist with intubation and emergency lifesaving procedures. Unit procedures include chest tube care, moderate sedation, lumbar punctures, laceration repair, and administration of blood products. Patient experience practices include rounding every 30–60 minutes and bedside shift reports.

The unit uses MediTech for documentation and has crash carts, Level One equipment, Alaris pumps, and Dash bedside cardiac monitors. Staffing includes one unit secretary and two to three technicians on the floor. The schedule is posted four weeks at a time, two weeks before the start date, with preferably three 12-hour shifts per week.
