Looking for a registered nurse with a skill set in Progressive Care Unit / Medical-Surgical / Telemetry due to a high acuity patient population.

They require extended stays before being discharged to home, acute rehabilitation, or skilled nursing facilities.

Nurses with critical care experience often float to this unit due to the patient acuity.
