** specializes in caring for patients recovering from traumatic brain injury, stroke-related brain injury, anoxic injuries, and other neurological conditions that require intensive rehabilitation and close medical and cognitive monitoring.

As an RN in inpatient acute rehab, you’ll provide comprehensive nursing care including detailed neurological assessments, care planning, medication administration, and clinical coordination for patients with brain injuries. You’ll collaborate closely with LPNs, physicians, neuropsychology, and interdisciplinary therapy teams to manage higher-acuity neurological conditions, support intensive rehabilitation, and drive safe, patient-centered discharge planning.

** Summary
* * Registered Nurses are a key member of the multi-disciplinary team that collaborates together to provide patient-centered care. Within the Nursing Department, RNs coordinate, direct, delegate, and provide care to multiple patients. Using a patient and family-centered care approach, each RN develops relationships with patients, families, and colleagues that enhance the quality of care provided. Nursing care is performed with compassion and courtesy, and each RN is responsible for following departmental policies and service standards.

Patient and family education is a primary focus of rehabilitation nursing and is a critical aspect of the interdisciplinary team’s efforts to assist patients to gain independence, apply adaptation strategies, and return home.
