Registered Nurse – Intensive Care - ICU

The NSICU RN must demonstrate expertise in advanced hemodynamic monitoring, ICP monitoring, and ventilator management. Nursing staff analyze all hemodynamics and respiratory care practitioners assist with mechanical

ventilator management. BLS is required upon hire, ACLS is required within 6 months of hire and NIHSS (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale) certification completion is required prior to end of orientation. These certifications

must remain active. Eight hours of continuing stroke education are required annually. The NSICU RN manages ventriculostomies, lumbar drains, arterial lines and central lines. Essential skills are advanced hemodynamic monitoring via the Hemosphere device as well as pulmonary artery catheters. Various intravenous drips are utilized in the NSICU and include medications for pain and sedation and well as vasopressors and vasodilators. NSICU uses targeted temperature management and continuous renal replacement therapy.

Registered nurses provide care in conjunction with the nursing assistant and our team of neurointensivists and advanced practice providers. Assignments are based on the patient’s needs, the geographical location of the patients, and the resources available. The charge nurse does not have a patient assignment.

NSICU was the recipient of the Patient Choice Award for inpatient units at ECU Health in 2022 and 2023 for our patient satisfaction scores.
