The Neurosciences ICU consists of 23 patient beds and admits patients with various neurological diseases and conditions. RNs in this unit experience 2 : 1 patient to nurse ratios. As a nationally recognized Comprehensive Stroke Center, many of the patients in the NSICU are recovering from Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Strokes. Patients come to the NSICU post operatively for craniectomies, craniotomies, carotid endarterectomies, post-carotid stenting, thrombectomies, aneurysmal clippings and coils, invasive spinal surgeries, and many other specialized procedures. The patient population frequently requires specialized invasive monitoring with bolts and external ventricular drains. In addition to the specialized neurological care that these patients require, the patients are also treated for various types of shock, renal failure, respiratory failure, and other common diagnoses seen in critically ill patients.

General Description : An OU Health Registered Nurse (RN) I works under general supervision, providing the highest quality of care to patients in a hospital setting with health problems ranging from simple to complex. They model the OU Health Way, as evident in their work output and interactions with employees and patients, through living OU Health’s core values of putting patients first, pursuing relentless excellence, showing integrity, seeking inclusion for all staff and patients, always learning, and valuing Teamwork.

RN I represents the nurse who is a novice or an advanced beginner advancing to competent.
