Your Opportunity:
The Cardiac Device Clinic/ICD Surgery OR offers an exciting opportunity within the outpatient clinic setting, as well as in the Pacemaker/ICD Surgery Operating Room where you will assist with the implantation of cardiac devices. Duties include but are not limited to pre and peri-operative nursing care; input on device selection options with physicians, device testing/troubleshooting, comprehensive cardiac device assessments, monitoring/evaluating the effectiveness of medical interventions/lifestyle changes for patients seen in clinic as well as via telephone follow-up, addressing patient concerns, and presenting clinical findings to physicians. Excellent teamwork, communication and computer skills required. With continual advancements in pacemaker therapies, the incumbent must be adaptable and committed to reviewing available resources to maintain competency in the area. Physical demands of the job include standing for extended periods of time while wearing lead, pushing/pulling/transporting more than 75lbs on a regular basis, repetitive motions such as typing and phone usage, and lifting/bending/reaching. Although Registered Nurses (RNs) in this setting work in close collaboration with the Cardiologist, independence and self-direction are key. Experience working in a Pacemaker clinic, navigating the Connect Care framework, and a focus on adult health education is an asset. Strong knowledge base of the cardiovascular system, heart rhythm strip analysis (12 Lead ECG), and cardiac patient management is required. The successful applicant will be expected to work collaboratively within the team of registered nurses, cardiology technologists, physicians, clinical nurse educators, and other support staff and to participate in quality improvement initiatives at the front line to support and maintain high quality patient care.
Description:
As a Registered Nurse (RN), you will provide a wide variety of nursing services to patients, families, communities and populations, while taking necessary steps to ensure their safety and well-being. In your role, you will utilize nursing processes, through critical thinking, problem solving and decision making, as well as teach, counsel and advocate on behalf of patients and their families. You will play a leadership role in supporting an integrated and holistic approach to patient care, health promotion and maintenance. You will provide safe, quality patient and family centered care while reflecting the shared vision and values of AHS. PLEASE NOTE: Provisional Permit Holders shall be paid $39.58 /hour - $54.16/hour. Upon being entered into the register of Registered Nurses, the rate of pay shall be adjusted to the rate of pay applicable to a Registered Nurse in accordance with AHS/UNA Article 25.02(b)(i) or (ii) as applicable.
