About The Position

The Registered Nurse (RN) – ICU Neuro specializes in providing critical care for patients with neurological conditions in the Neuro Intensive Care Unit (Neuro ICU) .

  • Continuously monitor for changes in neurological status, including altered consciousness, pupil reaction, motor function, and speech.
  • Utilize advanced technology and equipment to assess patient status, such as intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring devices, electroencephalography (EEG), and cardiac monitoring.

Critical Care Management :

  • Administer prescribed medications, including pain management, sedatives, anticonvulsants, and intravenous medications, ensuring correct dosages and monitoring for side effects.
  • Provide specialized care for patients undergoing procedures such as strokes (tPA administration) , neurosurgical interventions , brain injury management , or spinal cord surgery .
  • Monitor and manage ventilator settings for intubated patients, ensuring proper oxygenation and ventilation.
  • Manage patients with external drains, such as ventriculostomies (for ICP monitoring), and ensure proper positioning and drainage.
  • Neuro-Assessment and Interventions :

  • Perform neurological assessments using appropriate tools (e.g., Glasgow Coma Scale , pupil reactivity , motor and sensory function ).
  • Monitor for signs of deterioration, including increased ICP, seizures, or changes in consciousness, and intervene as necessary, following established protocols.
  • Administer anti-seizure medications for patients at risk of or experiencing seizures and ensure continuous monitoring.
  • Provide hyperventilation or other interventions to decrease ICP if necessary.
  • Family Education and Support :

  • Offer support and guidance to families of critically ill patients, explaining the nature of the neurological condition, prognosis, and treatment options.
  • Provide education on the care process, expected outcomes, and potential complications, ensuring families are informed and involved in decision-making.
  • Address emotional needs of family members, providing a comforting presence and helping them cope with the uncertainty of critical illness.
  • Collaboration with Multidisciplinary Team :

  • Collaborate with neurologists, neurosurgeons, intensivists, respiratory therapists, physical therapists, and other healthcare providers to deliver comprehensive care for neurocritical patients.
  • Participate in case discussions and rounds to provide input on the patient's condition, treatment plan, and progress.
  • Communicate effectively with the team to adjust care plans based on the evolving needs of the patient.
  • Post-Operative and Recovery Care :

  • Provide post-operative care for patients who have undergone neurological surgeries, including monitoring for signs of complications such as hemorrhage, infection, or changes in neurological function.
  • Assist in the rehabilitation planning process by preparing patients for further care, such as transitioning to a step-down unit, long-term acute care, or rehabilitation facilities.
  • Monitor for complications related to immobility, such as pressure ulcers, and take appropriate preventive measures.
  • Documentation and Compliance :

  • Accurately document all patient assessments, interventions, medications, treatments, and changes in condition in the electronic health record (EHR) .
  • Ensure all documentation is detailed and complies with hospital policies, nursing standards, and regulatory requirements.
  • Maintain up-to-date records for all patient interactions and treatments, ensuring clear communication between team members.
  • Emergency Response and Crisis Management :

  • Respond quickly to emergency situations, including stroke alerts, seizures, and deteriorating neurological conditions.
  • Provide advanced life support (ALS) and manage critical neurological emergencies with a focus on stabilizing the patient and preventing further brain injury.
  • Participate in rapid response teams and code blue situations, providing immediate care for patients in critical need of intervention.
  • Patient and Family Advocacy :

  • Advocate for the patient’s best interests by ensuring the care plan aligns with their clinical needs and family preferences.
  • Provide guidance to families on long-term care planning, including possible neurological rehabilitation, home care, and follow-up treatments.
  • Professional Development and Education :

  • Participate in continuing education and training related to neurological care, critical care nursing, and advancements in neurology and neurocritical care.
  • Maintain certifications in critical care and neurological nursing (e.g., Certified Neuroscience Registered Nurse (CNRN) or Critical Care Registered Nurse (CCRN) ).
  • Share knowledge and expertise with colleagues, mentoring and assisting in their professional development.
