This unit has 32 private rooms and is a telemetry capable surgical
unit. The nurses on the floor are experts in post-surgical

recovery process. Our unit consists of general surgical and
overflow medical with multi-system involvement and patients
requiring “non-acute” cardiac telemetry monitoring. We serve
Adolescents (16+ years old), adults, and geriatric patients. The
patient to nurse ratio is set to match staff requirement to meet
the care needs of patients. The Charge RN makes shift by
shift assignments based on patient census, patient complexity,
nurse experience level, and staff skill mix. All nurses are
licensed in the State of Washington and some are certified in their
area of practice. All nursing staff maintain competency through
continuing education, department in-services, and annual updates of
unit specific competencies. The most
common surgical patients are joint replacements, general surgery,
gynecological procedures and urology. Surgical volumes drive our
unit census. We work in close collaboration with our Peri-Op team
for patient placement and bed planning. General medical patients
round out our unit census as overflow from other hospital
units. Job
