Job Title: RN - Peds PACU Profession: RN Specialty: Pediatric Post Anesthesia Care Duration: 13 weeks Shift: 12hr Day Shift Hours per Shift: 36 Experience: 1 year required, 2 years preferred in critical care pediatric space License: Active RN License Certifications: BLS, PALS Must-Have: - Must have completed at least one travel assignment - Self-motivated and resourceful - Team player with a willingness to ask for help Description: This position is for a registered nurse in the Pediatric Post Anesthesia Care Unit. The facility is a teaching hospital with a Level 1 Trauma Designation. The PACU has 20 beds with an average daily census of 30-40 patients. Candidates should be comfortable managing medications typically encountered in an ICU setting, including heparin, insulin, and occasionally cardiac medications. Care primarily involves pediatric patients aged 0-17, covering most surgical specialties, except cardiac. Patient ratios are 1:1 to 1:2, depending on acuity. Vented patients typically go straight to the ICU, and there is limited use of BiPAP, primarily in a post-operative setting. While the focus is on pediatric patients, nurses may occasionally care for adult patients based on unit needs. Support within the department includes transporters, clerical staff, and a PACU educator. Dedicated charge and management staff do not take patients, allowing them to focus on supporting the nursing staff. Anesthesia is available 24/7. Nurses are responsible for telemetry monitoring. Technology and equipment include EMR systems, IV pumps, medication dispensing systems, and patient monitors. Candidates should have a collaborative, all-hands-on-deck mentality, especially in an open bay unit environment.
