Unit Notes
TRAVEL EXPERIENCE REQUIRED
Must be prepared to float to sister facility in Laveen
Pass / Fail Day 1 Testing - SIMs Lab : All RNs will be expected to complete SIMs Lab for Foley catheter insertion & central line dressing changes, with the exception of NyICU & ED.
NyICU only has to do Foley catheter insertion. ED does Foley catheter insertion but does port-a-cath insertion instead of central line dressing change.
This is for travelers going to St. Joseph main campus & / or St. Joseph Westgate campus. NOTE - SIMs lab is pass / fail & nurses have been termed during SIMs Lab for breaking sterile field.
Those travelers that understand sterile field typically pass SIMs Lab skills (See separate notes for the specific checklist IF traveler asks for additional details).
The hospital expects that every nurse is competent in these areas, especially maintaining sterile field, as these are nursing skills that are performed frequently.
NOTE : if a candidate indicates that they are not competent in either of these areas, they are probably not a good fit. In addition to SIMs Lab, they will also go through lifts, restraints, & wound care, but these are just educational based since the equipment & policies can be different facility to facility.
COVID vaccine is required or declination form with supporting documentation from clergy or MD.
