While your patients are in the PACU, your job will be to monitor
them to ensure their safety while they are still under anesthesia.
You will monitor their vital signs, including their blood pressure,
pulse, heart rate, and oxygen supply.Pain management will account
for a large part of what you do in the PACU. Most surgical patients
have a lot of pain to deal with when they wake up, so you will need
to be able to properly administer them the medications which they
need to stay as comfortable as possible.You will have to decide
which patients are ready to be sent home based on whether they can
walk and hold down fluids and whether any post-surgical
complications have developed.Our PACU nurses also provide emotional

Will Do:Provide direct nursing care for anesthetized patients in
the immediate post-operative or post-procedural period.
