CVICU is a 28-bed post open heart intensive care unit. Our patients have had CABG, valve, Thoraco adominal, AAA or other type of vascular surgery. We are a recovery area and the patients are admitted to the unit, immediately post op. We make assignments according to patient acuity. We have 9 dedicated ORs and do an average of 2500 bypass cases per year. We have 16 surgeons and run off standing orders. We have Hewlett Packard Merlin Monitors with no central monitor, so nurses are responsible for staying at the bedside. We utilize Pleurovac and Emerson chest drainage systems and Gish cardiotomy reservoir for auto transfusion. Labs, x-rays, and ancillary services are ordered by computer.

We currently have full time, day shift openings on CVICU. Sign on bonus and relocation assistance are available.
