Critical Care Staff Nurse - Sedation

The Procedural Sedation Unit nurses work collaboratively with medical, radiology, and anesthesiology staff providing sedation and perianesthesia services for patients undergoing diagnostic, invasive, and/or painful procedures. We offer moderate procedural sedation, assist Anesthesia in venues outside of the operating room, and support nursing care needs in the Radiology department. Critical care registered nurses provide illness management and health promotion for patients and families who require intensive care.

Critical care registered staff nurses utilize the nursing process and knowledge of scientific principles to provide safe, high quality, comprehensive, and age appropriate nursing care for their assigned patients in the intensive care areas of the hospital. Critical care registered staff nurses provide patient and family education and advocate for their needs, while coordinating patient care with nonprofessional personnel as necessary.
