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.
As a Registered Nurse, you will assess, plan, implement, and evaluate individual patient care on our specialized units according to unit policies and procedures. You will provide supervision to non-RN personnel and, when assuming the charge role, delegate and supervise unit activities. This role requires flexibility to work on other nursing units based on the distribution of staff and patients, ensuring a high level of service across the organization.
We offer opportunities within high-acuity environments designed for complex care:
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, including CABG, valve replacements, aortic dissection repairs, heart transplants, and LVAD implantation. This is the only unit in the YNHH health system that cares 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 consisting of 8 ICU and 6 stepdown beds. We specialize in caring for patients post-complex vascular surgery (aortic repairs) and post-cardiac surgery (CABG, valve replacements) in the ICU, while the stepdown beds manage a variety of complex heart and vascular diagnoses.
