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. # Beds22 private RatiosWhat are your nursing ratios?1:4-5Required certifications (i.e., BLS, ACLS?)/"What certifications are required for your floor?Ex: BLS, ACLS, NIHSS/"BLSCommon diagnoses/Types of patients/"What are common diagnosis's or types of patients that you care for on your unit or in your department? /"post op, sepsis, pneumonia, COPD, diabetes, infectionExperience or 'Must have' skills/"Must Have: Recent med/surg experience; Prefer: charge nurse experience; telemetry experience (in case they float to other units within the hospital) no to first time travelers/"Are RNs required to titrate drips?/"Do you titrate any drips on your unit (Heparin, insulin, nitro, etc)?Does your unit take any set rate cardiac gtts (amio, dopamine, dobutamine, etc.)?/"Heparin - no cardiac gtts.Common titratable &/or set rate drips/"What drips do you titrate?
