  • Manage the patient's airway including endotracheal intubation and vent management as instructed by the physician
  • Identify and hand-off equipment needed by the sterile cannulation team
  • Demonstrate good organizational and communication skills with tact and poise in stressful situations
  • Demonstrate excellent critical thinking skills, knowledge, and judgment in an uncontrolled environment
  • Rapidly assess circumstances and communicate findings to the team
  • Follow instructions and prioritize actions in a rapidly changing and uncontrolled environment
  • Anticipate needs of the team and communicate potential problems to the team
  • Demonstrate a willingness to adapt to new ways of thinking about problems and treatment strategies
  • Provide any needed support to the team in the effort to cannulate and stabilize the patient

Qualifications:

    • Completion of an approved Paramedic or Nursing program.
    • Current Minnesota State Certification as an EMT-Paramedic or Registered Nurse (RN). (Preference given to RN applicants).
    • Must hold either a Minnesota RN License or EMT-Paramedic Certification.

    Experience
    • Minimum of 3 years' experience with an emergency advanced life support unit.
    • Critical care transport experience preferred.
