This role offers the chance to work in a fast-paced ICU setting where you'll be responsible for performing lab sticks, EKGs, line starts, and managing advanced equipment such as Alaris IV pumps, Servo ventilators, and GE monitors. You’ll float across ICU units and occasionally to the ED, PACU, or MS/PCU, adapting to varying patient ratios and environments.
