Description

We’re seeking a Registered Nurse to join our 4B Moderate Care Unit, a fast-paced, 12-bed, 24-hour observation unit supporting the entire Heart & Vascular Service Line at Emory University Hospital. This unique unit cares for a diverse mix of cardiovascular patients, including those transitioning from CICU, CVICU, 6E, 8E, and 4G stepdown units, as well as patients recovering from same-day procedures who require extended observation prior to discharge.

On 4B, you’ll care for a variety of patients with complex cardiovascular diagnoses and procedures, providing an exceptional platform to build critical care skills, enhance assessment abilities, and strengthen clinical judgment. The unit’s high patient turnover and diagnostic variety make it ideal for nurses seeking to develop strong organizational skills and rapid decision-making in a collaborative, high-acuity environment.

We are proud to be part of a health system with four Magnet®-recognized hospitals—the only one in Georgia with that distinction. 4B offers a dynamic opportunity for growth, learning, and professional excellence alongside a dedicated interdisciplinary team.

As an Registered Nurse, you’ll bring broad clinical experience and apply the AACN Synergy Model for Patient Care to deliver individualized, evidence-based care. You’ll serve as a resource for colleagues and a strong advocate for patients and families as you navigate a fast-paced clinical setting that blends observation and progressive care.
