Department/Position Overview: 

3 West Ortho is a 12-bed unit that accommodates a variety of post operative surgical procedures including total hip, knees, shoulders, ankles & spine. We do anywhere from 10-20+ surgical admissions & discharges per week, so we have a quick patient turnover. Being that most of our patients are admitted via elective procedure it makes the patient population a joy as they are often very thankful for our staff & have an anticipated plan of care managing pain, physical therapy & monitoring post operative complications. We enforce more independence by promoting mobility which decreases the amount of total care patients we have which is also a bonus for our small unit.

What makes It great to be an RN on our unit? I pride myself on having a TEAM of nurses who are passionate about what they do.  This increases their ability to provide a positive work environment where each staff member works together to complete their daily tasks through the busy days of a bedside nurse. My unit coordinators work closely will all bedside nurses & especially new nurses to ensure they become comfortable & confident in the care they provide. If you ask my nurses “What is working well at work?” they will tell you “It’s my team & the teamwork that gets me through each day”.  Being a small unit specializing in orthopedics almost all of our patients have a very similar plan of care & daily routine that provides our nurses with the ability to have a systematic workflow throughout their shift. Our unit works closely with three orthopedic surgical groups that always have genuinely dedicated Nurse Practitioners & Physician Assistants on site or easily accessible enhancing the care we can provide to our patients in a timely manner without impeding our workflow. As a manager, I am hands on with patient care & assisting with any needs, flexible & easy to talk to. Lastly, we enjoy listening to music & having pizza parties frequently to enhance our positivity & fuel our motivation.
