    This is a structured ICU environment with strong interdepartmental communication and clear expectations. Technicians are trusted to function at a high level and are supported by board-certified Criticalists and specialty teams.

    Demonstrated competency in:

    • CRI setup and management
    • Advanced anesthetic recovery monitoring
    • Blood product administration
    • Neurologic patient monitoring
    • Independent clinical decision-making within scope
