PACU nursing involves the care of patients who are recovering from surgery, particularly when the application of anesthesia is involved.
Once the patient sufficiently recovers from the effects of the anesthesia, he / she is typically transferred to the appropriate ward or discharged from the hospital.
PACU nurses are typically responsible for providing patient care during the immediate postoperative recovery period. He / she typically have training in basic life support measures, airway management, acute surgical wound care, catheter procedures and the special requirements associated with anesthesia.
PACU nurses may also be trained in the use of cardiac life support equipment.
