Registered Nurse (RN) Full time

Job Description:

The Registered Nurse (RN) is a professional caregiver who assumes responsibility and accountability for assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating care of patients. The staff RN utilizes the nursing process by use of technology, therapeutic intervention, evidence-based practice and coordination of care with other health team members.

 

 

You.  

 

You bring your body, mind, heart and spirit to your work as a Post-Anesthesia Care Registered Nurse.  

 

Your compassion is tangible: patients feel it in the hand they hold. Families feel it in your prayers. Colleagues feel it in your support. 

 

You know how to stay organized and move fast.  You thrive in fast-paced environments. 

 

You’re great at what you do, but you want to be part of something even greater. Because you believe that while individuals can be strong, the right team is invincible. 

 

Us.  

 

Our pre-op and PACU have 34 bays/rooms respectively and we perform an average of 50 cases a day. Our nurse to patient ratio is 1:1 or 1:2 depending on the acuity of the patients, as we provide both inpatient and outpatient care, keeping the patient and family at the center of the experience.  We are proud to be an accredited Chest Pain Center, a Primary Stroke Center, and a private teaching hospital. 

 

Saint Joseph Hospital is part of Intermountain Health, a faith-based, nonprofit healthcare organization that focuses on person-centered care. Our 365-bed facility is one of the top-ranked hospitals in Denver, and has been awarded the highest national recognition possible for nursing excellence – Magnet designation – by the ANCC. We are proud to extend the mission of Intermountain Health by providing care for the poor, the vulnerable, our communities and each other. Our deep community roots date back to 1873, making us one of the oldest hospitals in Colorado. 

 

Benefits are one of the ways we encourage health for you and your family. Our generous package includes medical, dental and vision coverage. But health is more than a well-working body: it encompasses body, mind and social well-being. To that end, we’ve launched a Healthy Living program to address your holistic health. Healthy Living includes financial incentives, digital tools, tobacco cessation, classes, counseling and paid time off. We also offer financial wellness tools and retirement planning. 

 

We.  

 

Together we’ll align our mission and careers, values and workplace. We’ll honor each other’s dignity and surpass the standards we set. We’ll encourage joy, demand safety and take pride in our integrity.  

 

We’ll laugh at each other’s jokes (even the bad ones). We’ll hello and high five. We’ll celebrate milestones and acknowledge the value of spirituality in healing. 

 

We’re proud of what we know, which includes how much there is to learn.  

 

Shift: PRN

 

Your day. 

As a PACU RN you need to know how to: 

 

  • Recognize and address patients’ psychological and physical needs 

  • Foster continuity and quality of care with the best interest and well-being of patients and their families in mind 

  • Assess a patients’ medical status upon admission 

  • Assist in developing individualized treatment plans 

  • Comply with evaluation, treatment and documentation guidelines 

 

Your experience. 

 

We hire people, not resumes. But we also expect excellence, which is why we require:  

 

  • ASN / ADN from an accredited program with the ability to obtain your BSN from an accredited program within four (4) years of hire unless you possess a minimum of fifteen (15) years of proven continuous Registered Nurse experience in an acute care setting, required 

  • Current Colorado RN license or compact license with the ability to obtain Colorado RN license, required 

  • Current BLS certification endorsed by the American Heart Association or the ability to obtain within sixty (60) days of hire (with prior approval), required (ACLS/NRP/PALS as appropriate for unit or service) 

  • At least two (2) years of nursing experience in a comparable acute care/procedural setting such as  PACU, ER, ICU, or step down highly preferred.

 

 

 

Your next move. 

 

Now that you know more about being a PACU RN on our team we hope you’ll join us. At Intermountain Health reaffirm every day how much you love this work, and why you were called to it in the first place.
