Job Details

​

Join Cleveland Clinic Akron General where we have been providing world-class care to the community for over 100 years. At Akron General, you will work and learn from some of the best caregivers, provide and receive multitudes of support and appreciation, and create the steppingstones toward a rewarding career with one of the world's most respected healthcare organizations. We strive for patient-centered care and comfort, and we are committed to serving the community and treating our patients as family.  

 

Our NICU opened November 1, 2024, under Cleveland Clinic oversight. We are a 14-bed, level III NICU. We admit infants born as young as 22 weeks gestational age up to full term babies who need help transitioning to life outside the womb. We care for babies who need full-body cooling, respiratory support (CPAP, conventional ventilators, jet ventilator, oscillator), and IV nutrition support as well as attend high risk deliveries and lead neonatal resuscitations. We have a full staff of neonatologists and neonatal nurse practitioners who are on-site 24/7. Along with our provider team, we have a full team of therapists - physical, occupational, and speech – a dedicated dietician, and a dedicated respiratory therapy team, who are here Monday through Friday. We also have a NICU Clinical Nurse Specialist who provides monthly simulations, hip-to-hip education, and just-in-time education. She has also taken on ensuring our policies and procedures are up to date and in alignment with the enterprise and the latest evidence-based practices. Our staffing core is 5 nurses, though we have a robust per diem team as well as status nurses willing to pick up to help the team. Our assignments are generally 1:3 (i.e. feeder/growers) or 1:2 (i.e. CPAP, stable vent, central lines) with the occasional 1:1 for those extremely high acuity babies (i.e. cooling, unstable jet or oscillator, nitric).  

 

As an RN in the NICU, you will deliver exceptional care throughout the patient care journey. In this role, you will interact directly with patients and their families, offering the opportunity to enhance their experience and provide healthcare education as needed.
