You’ll collaborate with physicians, case managers, and ancillary staff to coordinate care, ensure safe handoffs, and educate patients and families on treatment plans, discharge instructions, and follow-up needs. You’ll be expected to uphold evidence-based protocols, implement infection control practices, and contribute to quality improvement initiatives that enhance patient safety and outcomes. This role also offers pathways for professional growth within the ER specialty through cross-training, leadership exposure (charge nurse opportunities, shift coordination, mentoring), and access to advanced certifications.
