Calling all PCU RN’s

The RN in the Progressive Care Unit provides care for patients who require close monitoring and frequent assessment but don’t require admission to the ICU unit. The PCU RN monitors all the critical vital signs to detect any changes and make sure to initiate intervention when necessary in an emergency situation. Most patients who are in this unit are receiving complex medications as well that must be monitored and adjusted. These RN's are also referred to as Step Down Nurses in units such as Cardiac Stepdown, Neuro Stepdown, Surgical Stepdown, Medical Stepdown and ER holding. Patients that are progressing well are moved to these units from the ICU and their needs are less acute.

Do you have two years of experience in this area of expertise? The PCU RN has the following characteristics: clinical judgment, advocacy, caring practices, systems thinking, collaboration, response to diversity and teaching as well, in order to educate the patient and the family.
