Registered Nurse - Critical Care Unit
for each heading. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use
for prose.
We need to preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Must not omit details. That's a lot; we need to include all bullet points from responsibilities, qualifications, etc.
We need to parse the job description text and extract sections.
Let's extract:
General Summary: "Provides professional nursing care at the beginner practitioner level within an assigned unit according to established procedures, protocols and regulations. Coordinates care planning with other disciplines. May require specialized skills depending on unit assignment."
That's prose.
Responsibilities: The block after "Responsibilities Duties and Responsibilities Essential Functions". It's a long list of duties. We need to capture each duty as list items.
Let's list them:
- Provides and coordinates direct care in accordance with the principles of Relationship Based Care to patients based on the nursing process and according to the clinical standards of the hospital.
- Acts as a primary nurse for patients on the unit.
- Synthesizes patient data to develop outcome-driven plans.
- Safely and independently administers prescribed treatments, medications, and nursing interventions based on assessment and plan of care.
- Appropriately organizes and prioritizes time based on patient condition and expected workload.
- Identifies changes in patients’ status and acts accordingly.
- Knows and can activate resources to achieve outcomes for patients.
- Identifies and communicates individualized patient needs for inter-shift report and transfer/discharge.
- Includes patient/family in planning.
- Collaborates with all disciplines in evaluation of patient progress.
- Appropriately and correctly documents the patient response to interventions and progress toward outcomes.
- Identifies and documents variances from pathway or plan of care.
- Appropriately utilizes flow sheets, progress notes, and/or electronic medical record for documentation.
- Validates compliance with system and unit-specific clinical initiatives, i.e. pain scores, restraints, fall precautions, etc..
- Keeps practice current by participating in performance improvement efforts.
- Complies with changes in clinical standards and policies.
- Participate in data collection for performance improvement activity.
- Recognizes the value of evidence based research as it applies to best practice.
- Seeks learning opportunities and resources beyond own work environment and incorporates into practice the new knowledge and skills acquired.
- Promotes an environment conducive to professional practice, interdisciplinary collaboration, and patient and staff safety.
- Supports Shared Decision Making by unit committee membership or by supporting and helping fellow co-workers attend committee meetings and/or work on SDM projects.
- Participates in staff meetings and unit activities.
- Uses opportunities in the clinical setting to teach and support others, one-on-one or in groups (e.g. Students, other hospital personnel).
- Begins to provide leadership for problem solving and goal formation.
- Negotiates for a win-win solution.
- Delegates aspects of care to other nursing personnel in order to meet patient needs and to maximize team performance.
- Helps assistive personnel organize and set priorities for work.
- Monitors completion of tasks that are assigned or delegated to the patient care team.
- Promotes collaboration and cooperation among physicians, nursing staff, and other members of the interdisciplinary team.
- Contributes to effective communications among all team members.
- Begins to display conflict resolution and negotiation skills to maximize team performance.
- Variation of duties may result based on the assigned customer care unit(s). This may include differences in the specific clinical skills required of the RN. Unit based skill lists outline expectations beyond the house wide RN requirements.
- SYS-NURS-L Nursing Education Requirements Policy outlines current certification(s) required for specific areas of nursing practice and is considered to be part of the job description.
- In addition to requirements specified in the license and certification section below, current BLS certification for all areas of nursing practice is required.
- Current certification may be required for the following areas of nursing practice:
- Emergency Care Center – ACLS, PALS
- Intensive Care Center & MSCC Lead – ACLS, PALS
- L&D – ACLS, NRP, - Experienced L&D nurses will obtain within 6 months and new L&D nurses will obtain at 1 year of experience
- NICU – NRP
- PEDS – PALS
- PCC/PACU/ENDO – ACLS, PALS
- Procedural – ACLS
Then "Common Expectations" block: list of expectations.
- Demonstrates knowledge of the principles of growth and development over the life span of the assigned patient population.
- Assesses and interprets patient age specific data and provides appropriate, age specific treatment.
- Provides direct patient care to assigned patient age group(s).
- Demonstrates a commitment to patient, visitor and staff by: complying with all applicable safety regulations; learning the impact of medical errors and methodology that will lead to reduction of errors; reporting actual and potential errors, as well as hazardous conditions; identifying opportunities to standardize processes and "error proof" systems that will lead to increased safety; and participating in safety education programs and root cause analyses as required.
- Maintains established policies and procedures, objectives, quality assessment, safety, environmental and infection control standards.
- Enhances professional growth and development through advanced/continuing education to maintain up-to-date knowledge, skills, and competencies.
- Provides outstanding service to all customers; fosters teamwork; and practices fiscal responsibility through improvement and innovation.
Then "Physical Demands" and "Working Environment" maybe not needed for sections but could be part of Requirements? Might be considered under Requirements? But we have no specific heading for Physical Demands; we could include under Requirements as part of job requirements. However the instruction says include section only when posting has real, specific content for it. We have that content; we could include under Requirements or maybe under Qualifications? But we already have Qualifications for education/experience/license. Physical demands could be part of Requirements. However we already have a Requirements section for license; we could merge but better to keep separate: Requirements could include physical demands and working environment. But the instruction gave example headings; we can use Requirements for licensure/education/experience? Actually Qualifications already covers education/experience/license. Requirements could be for physical demands etc. But we need to avoid duplication.
Given the instruction: "Use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So they expect these headings. We need to map content accordingly.
Thus:
- About the role: General Summary.
- Responsibilities: Duties and Responsibilities.
- Requirements: maybe includes Licenses, Physical Demands, Working Environment? But we also have Qualifications separate for education/experience. However they listed both Requirements and Qualifications as possible headings. So we need to decide what goes where.
We could put:
Requirements: Licenses (including BLS, ACLS etc.) and maybe Physical Demands.
Qualifications: Minimum Education, Work Experience.
Skills: Common Expectations (knowledge, commitment, etc.)
That seems plausible.
Let's extract license requirements:
From text: "Licenses Licensed Registered Nurse Upon Hire Required orRegistered Nurse Multi State License Upon Hire Required andBasic Life Support Upon Hire Required"
Also "Current certification may be required for the following areas of nursing practice:" list.
Thus Requirements section should include those license/certification details.
Physical Demands and Working Environment could also be under Requirements but we could also put them under Requirements as subpoints.
But we need to preserve all substantive information. So include Physical Demands and Working Environment as list items under Requirements.
Let's extract Physical Demands:
- Standing - Frequently
- Walking - Frequently
- Sitting - Occasionally
- Carrying/Lifting - Occasionally (50lbs)
- Pushing/Pulling - Occasionally (50lbs)
- Kneeling/Crouching - Occasionally
- Reaching - Occasionally
- Talking - Frequently
- Hearing - Frequently
- Repetitive Motions - Occasionally
- Eye/Hand/Foot Coordination - Occasionally
Working Environment:
- Occupational Hazards - Occasionally
- Bloodborne Pathogen - Exposure
Now Qualifications: Minimum Education, Work Experience.
From text:
"QUALIFICATIONS Minimum Education Diploma Program Required orAssociates Degree RequiredBachelors Degree Nursing (BSN) Preferred Work Experience critical care experience preferred Licenses Licensed Registered Nurse Upon Hire Required orRegistered Nurse Multi State License Upon Hire Required andBasic Life Support Upon Hire Required"
But we already used Licenses in Requirements. However the Qualifications block includes education, work experience, licenses. To avoid duplication, we could split: Qualifications: Education and Work Experience. Requirements: Licenses, Physical Demands, Working Environment.
But the text lumps licenses under Qualifications. However we can still separate as long as we preserve all info. It's okay to move license info to Requirements; still preserving.
Now Skills: Common Expectations list.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with sections.
We must not include any boilerplate like cookie/navigation etc. Already removed.
We must not repeat job title as heading.
We must not include Job ID etc.
We must not include empty sections.
Now format:
