Cardiovascular ICU

Cardiovascular Intensive Care is a 12-bed unit. We care for critically ill cardiac patients, post-code blue patients and post-interventional cardiac catheterization. Our patients receive 12 lead EKG monitoring, ventilator care, advanced hemodynamics, intra-aortic balloon pump monitoring, and more. CVRR specializes in the care for patients post heart or lung surgery such as CABG, Thoracotomy, Maze Procedure, Valve Replacement, Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TVAR). We do prefer previous experience but are currently partnering with Cardiac PCU and Cardiovascular Stepdown to help prepare for our higher level of care.

The RN Advanced Care administers patient care in an area in a hospital or inpatient setting where patients have an advanced illness or injury that routinely requires timely, intense, and complex care to stabilize and support the patient's medical condition. These areas require a lower caregiver-to-patient ratio and highly trained team members with advanced skills.
