• Collaborate with physicians, case managers, therapists, and other healthcare professionals to coordinate care
• Educate patients and families regarding cardiac conditions, medications, lifestyle modifications, and discharge plans
• Maintain accurate and timely clinical documentation
• Support patient safety initiatives and evidence-based nursing practices
• Assist with discharge planning and continuity of care efforts

Qualifications

• Current Registered Nurse (RN) license required
• Minimum of 1 year of recent acute care nursing experience within the last 2 years required
• Strong assessment, telemetry monitoring, and critical thinking skills
• Ability to manage patients with varying levels of cardiac acuity in a fast-paced environment

Benefits

• Relocation assistance package including $7,000 relocation support and up to $1,800 per month housing assistance for 3 months
• Shift differential available
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Retirement savings plan
• Paid time off and holiday benefits
• Continuing education and professional development opportunities
• Career advancement opportunities within a growing healthcare organization
• Supportive and collaborative team environment focused on quality patient care

This opportunity is ideal for a nurse seeking to build expertise in cardiac care while working in a progressive care setting that bridges critical care and medical-surgical nursing.
