Responsibilities

Accepting New Grads and experienced Registered Nurses!

The Registered Nurse demonstrates knowledge of care in both stable and acute settings. Adheres to organizational policy and adapts to fast-paced environments while actively participating in and encouraging teamwork.

PCCU nurses are trained to administer and monitor patients on cardiac medications, titratable vasoactive infusions as well as monitor and interpret EKG rhythms. They will care for patients with arterial and venous access sheaths as well as invasive drains; while observing the cardiovascular system, neurovascular and pulmonary status, they are able to communicate with physicians about orders and procedures, perform conscious sedation under physician direction and pre-procedure prep. The Registered Nurse will assist not only with the patient, but also incorporate family focused care by teaching necessary pre- and post-hospital care.

The Registered Nurse operates out of “nursing pods” this allows them to have no more than four patients at a time which maintains a 4:1 patient-to-nurse ratio. OHH nursing pods allow the Registered Nurse to have close access to everything they need and have more time at the patient's bedside ensuring the highest quality care.

Qualifications

Education:  Graduate of an accredited school of nursing program.

Licensure/Certification:  Registered Nurse with current Oklahoma licensure.  Current BLS certification required at the time of hire and ACLS certification within 18 months of hire.

Experience: Minimum of one (1) year of continuous experience in telemetry or related cardiac clinical setting preferred. 

As part of our nursing team, you are empowered to work collaboratively with our physicians and other caregivers, and play an integral role in setting the standard for excellence in patient care. With low, fixed nurse-to-patient ratios, our nursing team has time to get to know their patients and their families while providing the highest quality, safe, patient-focused care. Patient rooms are fully stocked with all necessary supplies and arranged in a circular, pod layout around each nursing station to streamline patient care and save our nursing team time.
