CVOR RN

Overview

This is a CVOR RN opportunity in Sanford, FL, at a 221-bed acute care hospital and Level II Trauma Center offering the area's only full-service cardiovascular program — encompassing open-heart surgery, interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, cardiac rehabilitation, and comprehensive diagnostic services.

The CVOR RN joins an interdisciplinary operative team — including surgeons, surgical technologists, and advanced practice providers — to deliver safe, evidence-based nursing care throughout the perioperative continuum. Core responsibilities include evaluating patients prior to surgery, managing patient preparation (intravenous therapy, preoperative medications, and surgical site verification), and leading or participating in briefing, time-out, and debriefing protocols per hospital policy.

The nurse assesses and continuously monitors patient condition throughout each shift, documents changes and care provided, and educates patients and families on procedures and postoperative expectations. Recognizing and responding to patient emergencies and contributing to ongoing surgical workflow improvement through rounding with unit leaders are also central to this role.
