Role specifics and benefits. As a Med Surg Tele RN, you’ll deliver comprehensive nursing care on medical‑surgical units equipped with telemetry monitoring. Responsibilities include patient assessment, IV therapy, medication administration, wound care, post‑operative monitoring, and managing acute changes in patient status. You’ll interpret telemetry readouts, recognize rhythm disturbances, and collaborate closely with physicians, case managers, and ancillary staff to develop and update care plans. You’ll lead patient and family education, discharge planning, and coordination with social work to ensure safe transitions from hospital to home or other care settings. The role emphasizes critical thinking, evidence‑based practice, and the ability to prioritize in a fast‑paced environment while maintaining compassionate, patient‑centered care.
Professional growth is a core pillar. You’ll have opportunities to deepen specialization within Med Surg Tele, pursue certification support, and engage in continuing education that aligns with your career goals.
