Job Description

The flexible service means you work flexibly across the entire clinic, rotating between our three operating units to maintain broad competence at each unit. You have a base schedule, but as a staffing resource, you are placed where the need is greatest for the day. Here, you have the opportunity to broaden your skills while being an important part of the patient care team. You will collaborate closely with nursing assistants, scrub nurses, and doctors.

As an anesthesia nurse, you are responsible for the planning, execution, and monitoring of anesthesia as well as the patient's vital functions before, during, and after surgery. In the flexible service, you are part of the hospital's emergency chain, which may involve working at external units when needed and ambulance transports for patients requiring a different level of care.
