Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU)

As a PACU nurse, you will support our patients in the perioperative phases of care by ensuring a safe post-operative environment while performing critical care for patients immediately after surgery.

We’re looking for someone who is energetic and likes to work in a fast-paced environment.
You’ll 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. The PACU RN will also be responsible for providing 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!
