You’ll be working with a variety of patients—including trauma, neuro, and post-surgical cases—providing specialized care such as ICP monitoring, ventilator management, and stroke support. Expect the pace to be fast, with patient ratios typically at 1:2, and occasional discharges that bring a third patient into the mix.
