Staff RN - Medical Unit 1, Part-time
About The Position
The Staff RN provides general nursing care to patients and families across the health-illness continuum in diverse health care settings while collaborating with the health care team. The nurse is accountable for nursing practice as defined by the Ohio Board of Nursing. The Medical Unit 1 team includes a comprehensive charge nurse, pharmacist, transition of care nurse, resident, and physician who round on each patient daily from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. Patients are seen by the same hospitalist while on the floor; physicians from the Central Ohio Primary Care Hospitalist group rotate weekly. The unit cares for medical-surgical patients and has four long-stay beds for eligible patients with difficult disposition needs. RNs and LPNs take their own patient assignments with support from Patient Support Assistants. This care model offers opportunities to affect patient throughput and pilot innovative patient-care ideas. As a High Reliability Organization, OhioHealth expects staff to focus on safety, quality, and efficiency.
