    Salary Range:
    $83, $93,184.00

    Job Description Summary

    The clinical Nurse contributes to the creation of a compassionate and caring environment for patients, families and colleagues through displays of kindness and active listening.

    Recognizes and appreciates that each employee's work is valuable and contributes to the success of the Mission.

    D5N is a 21 bed neurosciences unit with one level of care.

    We take patients with ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, brain tumors, aneurysms, seizures, traumatic brain injuries, neuromuscular diseases and other diagnoses involving the neurologic system.

    The floor beds consist of patients requiring every 4-hour monitoring. Additionally, there are 7 Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU) beds embedded in the 21 neuro floor beds.

    These patients are seizure disorder patients admitted electively with their anti-convulsant medications on hold and hard wired to continuous EEG.

    This allows the physicians to identify the area of the brain where the seizures are occurring.

    Many of these patients become candidates for brain mapping with surgically placed grids to further pinpoint the area causing the seizures.

    This mapping allows the surgeon to determine if the patient would be a candidate for surgical removal of parts of the brain to stop seizure activity and still allow the patient to have functionality.

    The nurse-to-patient ratio for floor patients is typically 1:5.
