About the Job

The Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (HIA) consists of 4-6 beds. We provide patient-centered care in close collaboration with thoracic radiology, where we follow our patients directly from thoracic radiology to HIA.

In the cardiac intensive care unit, we provide highly specialized cardiac intensive care and are equipped with modern equipment. We manage CPAP, ischemia monitoring, arterial catheters, central venous catheters, pericardial drains, pleural drains, transvenous pacemakers, electrical conversions, and postoperative care of TAVI and, in some cases, intermediate postoperative care of CABG.

The work is independent and varied in a team that includes nurses, nursing assistants, and doctors. The tasks include ongoing observations, careful monitoring, and high-quality nursing care.

At HIA, we work together and distribute the work among ourselves as needed. We have patient responsibility for our myocardial infarction patients in thoracic radiology during on-call hours. Staffing consists of 2 nurses and 1-2 nursing assistants around the clock.
