Experience with ventilators, infusion pumps, and electronic health records (EHRs) is vital, as is familiarity with common ICU protocols. Effective communication, emotional resilience, and the ability to work well under pressure help MICU nurses excel in high-stress environments. These competencies ensure the safe, timely, and compassionate care of critically ill patients in the MICU setting.
