Graduate Nurse Pulmonary Medicine to ICU Transitional Program (UPMC Presbyterian) This position is eligible for a generous sign-on bonus! Sign-On Bonus Details:
This transitional program is a fast track to the ICU and is designed to equip you with the skills that you need to become a successful ICU nurse. You will begin your nursing career on 10D/G, and then transition to our MICU. In this time, it is our goal to help build the foundation, knowledge, and skill sets required when caring for the diverse and high-acuity patient population. About the units: 10D/G is a 29-bed Advanced Lung Disease and Lung Transplant Step Down unit. Nurses care for pulmonary transplant patients as well as patients with advanced lung conditions including cystic fibrosis, COPD, asthma, scleroderma, sleep apnea, sarcoidosis, and pulmonary hypertension. The unit is involved in many research trials for pulmonary patients such as COPD Valve and Bone Marrow Transplant patients. Nurses commonly receive patients from the Medical ICU with high acuity, noninvasive ventilation, tracheostomies, and nocturnal trach vents. Our nurses value teamwork, professionalism, and excellent patient care. The Medical ICU at UPMC Presbyterian, a 32-bed critical unit expanding over 4 wings is the largest of Presbyterian's ICUs. Our patient population includes severe acute respiratory failure, pneumonia, pre and post lung transplants, sepsis, acute renal failure, toxicology, and bariatric patients. You will gain experience with ventilators, trachs, vasopressors, neuromuscular blockades, and CRRT machines. The MICU is an extremely rewarding environment for nurses who enjoy critical thinking and decision-making skills. Transitioning to the ICU is contingent on upon the employee's performance during the first year of hire. They must obtain a Solid/Strong/Good performance rating, lack any disciplinary action, and meet all requirements/expectations of their hiring unit. Why Work at UPMC?
