Outpatient Surgery
The Outpatient Surgery nurse will ensure a safe post-operative environment while performing critical care for patients immediately after surgery as well as coordination of Pre-Admission details. Outpatient Surgery is a great fit if you’re energetic and enjoy working in a fast-paced environment.
You will be responsible for collaborating with anesthesia providers while developing the plan of care for patients of varying acuity levels providing care for patients having elective and emergent procedures. In addition, OPS RNs also provide care to patients in the outpatient surgery setting during the pre and post-operative phase of care.
If you have interest in managing post anesthesia care to include pain management, hemodynamic stability, preparing patients for surgery, or educating a patient on postoperative care at home, then this job is for you!
