Registered Nurse: Intensive Care Center
About The Position
The Registered Nurse (RN) is responsible for providing compassionate quality care that is customer and family focused. The RN assesses, diagnoses, plans, implements, evaluates, and documents care of customers according to hospital and care center policies and standards of professional nursing practices. The RN is accountable for the quality of nursing services delivered. The RN defines, implements, and improves practice standards and environment of care while promoting exceptional customer care. Duties may vary based on the assigned customer care center which may include differences in the required specific clinical skills. Actively and consistently demonstrates the mission, vision, values and guiding principles of Maple Grove Hospital. The Intensive Care Center is a unique and dynamic unit grounded in strong teamwork and collaboration. While certain hospital services are limited—such as the absence of dialysis and a cath lab, along with reduced IR availability—our patient population reflects these boundaries while still offering a broad range of clinical experiences. We care for a diverse mix of medical and surgical patients, including pulmonary, cardiac, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, endocrine, and elective surgery populations. We also manage a select group of intensive care patients who require higher‑level interventions, such as vasoactive infusions and mechanical ventilation. On average, our census includes approximately two critical care patients per day. While the unit supports both medical/surgical and intensive care–level care, the majority of daily assignments will be med/surg focused, with ICU‑level assignments occurring as needed based on patient acuity and census. This blend of patient types and acuity levels creates a versatile, collaborative, and rewarding clinical environment for our team.
