Collaboration:
- Work closely with physicians, nurse practitioners, and other healthcare professionals to develop and implement individualized care plans.
- Participate in daily rounds and communicate with the team regarding patient condition, response to treatments, and any changes in care plans.
-
Patient Education:
- Educate patients and families about the recovery process, treatment plans, medications, and any required lifestyle changes.
- Provide guidance on managing chronic conditions, improving health, and preventing readmissions.
-
Documentation:
- Accurately document all nursing interventions, patient assessments, outcomes, and any changes in condition using electronic health records (EHR).
- Ensure compliance with all legal, regulatory, and hospital-specific documentation requirements.
-
Safety & Infection Control:
- Follow infection control protocols and use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize the risk of hospital-acquired infections.
- Respond to changes in patient condition quickly and appropriately, including initiating emergency procedures if needed.
-
Emergency Response:
- Recognize and respond promptly to emergencies, including code blue situations or significant changes in patient vital signs.
- Perform advanced life support (ALS) or other emergency interventions as required.
-
Teamwork and Support:
- Collaborate with PCU colleagues, support staff, and interdisciplinary teams to ensure safe and efficient patient care.
