Join us at Cleveland Clinic Akron General Hospital where we have been providing world-class care to our community for over 100 years. Here, we strive for patient-centered care and comfort with our collaborative team of healthcare professionals. We are committed to serving the community and treating our patients as family.

Akron General’s 4200 Unit is a Complex Cardiovascular Unit that cares for a diverse patient population with high acuity. Patients that are cared for include: post open-heart surgery patients at day 3 from the CVICU, vascular surgery patients (amputations, fem/pop surgeries), lung surgeries (VATS procedure) that require patients to have a chest tube inserted for several days, irregular heart rhythms such as atrial fibrillation that requires titrated IV medication, post heart catheterization (PCI) patients that require frequent observation following the procedure, pacemaker implantations, heart attacks, congestive heart failure and pulmonary embolism/DVT with IV anticoagulation.

By joining the 4200 team as a Patient Care Nursing Assistant (PCNA), you will perform various tasks, ensuring patients receive frequent attention and feel comfortable, supported and safe throughout treatment. This is a hands-on role that requires a present, attentive and empathetic caregiver who is willing to learn new medical technologies and support patients through some of their most vulnerable moments, as this is one of the highest acute areas in the hospital. In this role, you will gain a wide variety of skills you can use in advanced positions or other departments within the Cleveland Clinic system.
