Job Description
Job Overview We are seeking a dedicated and skilled MedSurg Registered Nurse to join our dynamic healthcare team. In this vital role, you will provide comprehensive nursing care to adult patients across medical-surgical units, ensuring optimal patient outcomes through expert assessment, intervention, and education. The ideal candidate will possess a strong foundation in acute care, critical thinking skills, and a commitment to delivering compassionate, patient-centered care. This position offers an opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment where your clinical expertise makes a meaningful difference in patients' lives. Duties Conduct thorough patient assessments, including vital signs, physical examinations, and medical history documentation using electronic health record (EHR) systems such as Epic or Cerner. Administer medications and injections accurately while adhering to aseptic techniques and HIPAA regulations. Monitor patients' conditions closely, managing acute pain, airway stability, ventilator support, and other critical needs. Perform procedures such as IV insertions, suturing, catheterizations, tube feedings, and specimen collection with precision. Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to develop and implement individualized care plans aligned with hospital standards and NCQA guidelines. Educate patients and families on treatment plans, medication administration, discharge instructions, and health coaching strategies. Maintain meticulous medical documentation including ICD coding (ICD-10/ICD-9), nursing notes, and case management records. Ensure infection control protocols are followed rigorously to prevent healthcare-associated infections. Assist in triage assessments in emergency or urgent care settings for timely intervention. Support special care units such as ICU, PICU, memory care, hospice & palliative medicine, or behavioral health as required. Experience Proven experience in medical-surgical nursing within hospital environments is essential; ICU or Level I/II trauma center experience is highly desirable. Demonstrated proficiency with EMR/EHR systems such as Epic or Cerner for documentation and order entry. Prior experience working with diverse patient populations including geriatrics, pediatrics, neonatal ventilator management, or individuals with developmental disabilities enhances your candidacy. Knowledge of critical care procedures including cardiac catheterization support, trauma medicine protocols, infectious disease care, and acute pain management is preferred. Familiarity with laboratory processes such as specimen processing and phlebotomy is advantageous. Experience in home & community care settings or outpatient clinics broadens your clinical versatility. Certification in Basic Life Support (BLS) required; additional certifications such as ACLS or PALS are beneficial. Strong understanding of medical terminology, anatomy knowledge, physiology principles, and CPT coding practices supports effective patient care delivery. If you are committed to excellence in nursing practice and eager to contribute to a compassionate healthcare environment that values continuous learning and professional growth—apply today to join our team as a MedSurg Registered Nurse. #pvdf
