Nemours Children's Hospital in Wilmington, Del. is where the Nemours healthcare system began, and we carry that legacy forward every day by delivering exceptional care to children across the Delaware Valley and beyond. Ranked among the nation's best pediatric hospitals by U.S. News & World Report and honored with the ANCC's Magnet Designation for excellence in nursing practice, we offer intensive and acute inpatient and outpatient services across more than 30 pediatric specialties.

In this role, you will be at the center of the action in the Cath Lab. As our Cardiac Catheterization RN, you will operate sophisticated equipment and provide hands-on patient care during catheterization procedures. You will work side by side with physicians in diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterizations and in diagnostic and therapeutic electrophysiology studies, interpreting hemodynamic waveforms and electrocardiographic tracings as you go. You will also support cardiologists during device implantation procedures and surgeons as they complete surgical procedures in the Cath Lab. Along the way, you will help operate and maintain fluoroscopic, digital image recording and electrophysiologic equipment, and you will have a voice in shaping the policies and procedures that guide our work. You will also collect data for quality control programs, assist with inventory controls and help maintain computer reports. Every child is unique, and your care will be individualized to each patient's age, developmental, psycho-social and cultural needs.
