Job Summary
The Care Partner is a support care provider who functions under the direction of the Registered Nurse. The primary focus is to promote a positive patient experience by partnering with the nurse, physician, healthcare team and other providers to deliver excellence in patient experience; and to assist with daily living activities and comfort measures. The Care Partner performs basic patient care functions (e.g., ADLs, ambulation, and vital signs) and may require approved advanced technical skills as needed (e.g., phlebotomy, dressing changes, oral suctioning, discontinuing Foley catheters). Clerical duties such as data retrieval, maintaining unit supplies, and transporting supplies/patient medications may be required. The role requires the ability to work in a fast-paced environment, multi-task, and communicate effectively with the RN and the care team, while maintaining professionalism and compassion.
The exact advanced skills required will depend on unit needs and may fluctuate. The Care Partner must be able to take direction from various care providers and maintain strong organizational and communication skills.
