About The Position

Seeking a Registered Nurse for the 2F Step-Down ICU Part-time (24 Hours Weekly), Days (7am-7pm) position at Baptist Health Floyd. This role is benefit-eligible and offers a sign-on bonus for experienced external candidates. The RN will be responsible and accountable for direct comprehensive nursing care for patients from admission to discharge, functioning as an on-shift team member providing direct patient care to meet the needs of patients, families, and co-workers. The Step-Down ICU (2F) is a 16-bed intermediate level of care unit between Inpatient Units and Critical Care units. It specializes in septic and respiratory compromised patients but also encounters diagnoses such as CHF, dysrhythmias, DKA, Hemodialysis and Peritoneal dialysis, and AMS. Nurses work closely with an interdisciplinary team to provide excellent care for a high acuity-based population. 2F is a great place for nurses to cultivate and expand their assessment skills while managing several drips and other specialized procedures.
