This position is subject to pre-employment screening (criminal background, drug testing, and/or education verification). A criminal conviction or arrest pending adjudication alone shall not disqualify an applicant except as provided by law. Any criminal history will be evaluated in relationship to job responsibilities and business necessity.  The information obtained in these reports will be used in a confidential, non-discriminatory manner consistent with state and federal law. 

The Registered Nurse (RN) provides direct patient care to assigned patients in the combined Transitional Care (A7) and Short Stay (A4) units. A7/A4 is composed of 27 adult medical surgical beds collectively. These unique units with smaller bed capacity and medically stable patients support the opportunity to fully implement the RN and LPN team model of care. A shared charge RN will oversee shift to shift operations of both units, allowing for staffing flexibility tailored to meet the changing care needs of those populations.

The 14 bed Transitional Care Unit (A7) will provide care to patients who are deemed ready for acute care discharge from UAMS by their physician and have experienced a delay in discharge. The 13 bed Short Stay Unit on (A4) will provide care to medical-surgical patients that meet specific criteria for stability, and are anticipated to discharge within 48 hours.
