Observation Unit Clinical Nurse Coordinator
: Job Details :

Description

Do you currently have an opportunity to make a real impact with your work? With over 2,000 sites of care and serving over 31.2 million patient interactions every year, nurses at TriStar Summit Medical Center have the opportunity to make a real impact. As a(an) Observation Unit Clinical Nurse Coordinator, you can be a part of positive change.

Summit is the busiest level 3 trauma hospital in Tennessee. In this position you will be working in a 25 bed Observation Unit. This unit cares for patients who are anticipated to discharge in 24-48 hours from admission. The diagnoses we would care for would be chest pain awaiting a stress test, angioedema patients, TIA patients whose symptoms have resolved, and dehydration due to nausea/vomiting/diarrhea who just need IV fluids and some electrolyte replacement and can go home quickly. If they need further care after they are admitted to the observation unit, they will be transferred to another inpatient unit.

There are unlimited growth opportunities at HCA! This position will provide a great pathway for nurses that are interested in growing into other Leadership roles.
