About YNHHS
To be part of our organization, every employee should understand and share in the YNHHS Vision, support our Mission, and live our Values. These values—integrity, patient-centered care, respect, accountability, and compassion—must guide what we do, as individuals and professionals, every day.
About the Role
The Registered Nurse works under the supervision of the Nurse Manager or Clinical Coordinator to assess, plan, implement, evaluate, and supervise individual patient care on a nursing unit according to established policies and procedures. This role involves providing supervision to non-RN personnel and, when assuming the charge role, delegating and supervising unit activities. The position may require flexibility to work on other nursing units based on staff and patient distribution.
Unit Context
We offer opportunities across several high-acuity environments within our Heart and Vascular and Cardiothoracic divisions:
Heart and Vascular Cardiac ICU (5-1 SP) A fast-paced, 14-bed critical care unit caring for adult patients with complex cardiac and medical diagnoses, including myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, unstable arrhythmias, and heart failure. Our team is trained in advanced heart failure management, including short- and long-term mechanical circulatory support (IABP, Impella, LVAD) and evaluation for advanced therapies and transplantation.
RN-HVC Cardiothoracic ICU (CTICU/WP3) An 18-bed cardiac surgery unit specializing in complex post-operative care for CABG, valve replacements, aortic dissection repairs, heart transplants, and LVAD implantation. This is the only unit in the YNHH health system caring for patients requiring ECMO (VV or VA). Nurses are trained on devices such as IABP, Impella/VADs, and CRRT based on experience and skill progression.
HVC Cardiovascular ICU and Stepdown (5-4 SP) A 14-bed hybrid unit featuring 8 ICU beds and 6 stepdown beds. The ICU focuses on patients post-complex vascular surgery (e.g., aortic repairs) and post-cardiac surgery (CABG, valve replacements), while the stepdown beds care for patients with a variety of complex heart and vascular diagnoses.
