Duke offers clinical services in all aspects of IV Therapy. As an IV Team nurse, we collaborate with other healthcare providers to place IV access in outpatients and inpatients. To ensure we provide evidence-based practice and up to date procedures, the IV Team nurses participate in hospital-wide committees such as Clinical Practice, Products and Hospital Education. As an IV Team nurse, you will be an important part of the patient's plan of care.
The Duke Emergency Department (ED) is a designated Level 1 Emergency Department and Trauma Center staffed and equipped to provide initial stabilization and emergency care to critically ill adult and pediatric injured patients. Included within the department is a dedicated Pediatric Unit, Psychiatric Unit, Trauma Unit, Clinical Evaluation Unit, and a four-bay Triage area.
