What We Offer
Join a Team with Heart
Step into a dynamic Neuro Intermediate Care Unit where teamwork, critical thinking, and compassionate care come together to deliver exceptional outcomes for patients with complex neurological conditions. Our Neuro Intermediate Unit provides specialized care for patients requiring a higher level of monitoring than a medical-surgical unit, offering nurses the opportunity to strengthen their clinical assessment skills while working alongside a highly collaborative interdisciplinary team.
Nurses on this unit care for patients with a variety of neurological diagnoses, including acute stroke, seizure disorders, traumatic brain injuries, neurosurgical recovery, spinal conditions, altered mental status, and other complex neurological illnesses requiring continuous monitoring and specialized care. This is an ideal environment for nurses who thrive in a fast-paced setting, enjoy caring for higher-acuity patients, and are passionate about advancing their knowledge in neuroscience and intermediate care.

• Manage neurological conditions including:
• Stroke (embolic & hemorrhagic)
• Subdural & subarachnoid hemorrhages
• Seizures, mild-to-moderate TBIs, lumbar drains
• Support medical overflow such as DKA, respiratory complications, sepsis, trachs, and stable vents
• Collaborate with supportive roles to focus on care planning and critical decision-making
• Occasionally support patients in sister cardiac and medical units
What We're Looking For
• Education:
• 4 Year / Bachelors Degree, preferred.
• Graduate of an accredited school of nursing required. If your RN nursing license has been inactive, retired or lapsed for five years or more and you have not been licensed in another state during the last five years, successful completion of a Board approved refresher course is required prior to reactivating or reinstating your license. In order to be considered for current licensure status, you must apply for reinstatement within one year of completing the refresher course.
• Experience:
• One year relevant experience, prefered.
• Licensure/Certification:
