A surgical ICU stepdown nurse is a registered nurse who specializes in caring for post-operative patients who don’t require an intensive level of care in the surgical ICU but aren’t stable enough for a general med-surg setting. SICU stepdown nurses provide effective transitional care to a diverse patient population who’ve undergone various surgeries. Patients admitted to a surgical stepdown unit usually require close cardiac monitoring, continuous pulse-oximetry, and more frequent assessments and interventions. Qualified nurses in the SICU area are always in high demand and there are ample opportunities for professional and personal growth in a fast-paced SICU stepdown environment. SICU stepdown is a great place to enhance clinical knowledge and skills and prepare nurses to face challenging situations as they progress through their careers.

What certifications are commonly held by Surgical ICU Stepdown nurses?

Surgical ICU Stepdown nurses may hold BLS - Basic Life Support or ACLS - Advanced Cardiac Life Support among others.
