PCU Registered Nurse

Our Progressive Care Nurses (PCU) care for patients requiring close monitoring and frequent assessment, but who aren't unstable enough to need ICU care. PCU nurses monitor cardiac and other critical vital signs and detect any changes, thereby enabling intervention of life-threatening or emergency situations. Many PCU patients receive complex medications that may require titration based on the patient’s vital signs. The PCU nurse is sometimes also called a step-down nurse and the PCU is also known as cardiac step-down, medical step-down, neuro step-down, surgical step-down and ER holding.

Monitor and assess patients who aren't unstable enough to need ICU care.

Requirements:

  • Current FL RN License
  • Cardiac Care and Heart Monitoring experience preferred
  • Current BLS and ACLS certifications (American Heart Association)
