SUMMARY



As a Clinical Resource Registered Nurse (RN), you plan, organize, coordinate, evaluate and provide guidance in implementing each patient's plan of care.


Our Long Term Care Unit (B7) is a 25 bed unit that is considered Med/Surg but functions more holistically as Long-Term Care. Patients on B7 are medically ready and have a difficult discharge process: awaiting placement to a rehab center, pending guardianship, or need to find a new place to call home as their former home is no longer capable of living in. B7 houses mainly a geriatric population and may get behavioral patients on the unit.
