Join a leading acute-care hospital as a Med Surg/Telemetry Registered Nurse in Omaha, NE. This position offers a unique opportunity to work in a team-based care delivery model, where you will collaborate with bedside RNs, LPNs, and CNAs to provide high-quality patient care. Our facility is dedicated to fostering a supportive environment that values teamwork, communication, and leadership.

The 5 West unit is a 40-bed non-specialty med-surg unit that cares for patients ages 18 and older with a variety of medical and telemetry needs, including acute and chronic illnesses such as sepsis, respiratory issues, gastrointestinal disorders, endocrine problems, cardiac diseases, and COVID-19. As a Registered Nurse, you will manage titratable drips, chest tubes, tracheostomies, complex wound care, post-bariatric procedures, high oxygen delivery systems, and end-of-life care.

Our team-based care delivery model, piloted in January 2025, ensures that each team member is well-versed in how this model benefits both patients and staff. You will work alongside Lead Nurses, Virtual Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, and Nursing Assistants to achieve a common goal of exceptional patient care. Virtual Nurses help with administrative tasks that require an RN license, allowing bedside nurses to focus on direct patient care.

Key Responsibilities:
