Nursing Team Roles: The focus of care is grounded in the primary value of Mayo

patient experience and provide a congruent plan of care. The unit is staffed by
a multidisciplinary team composed of members from respiratory therapy, physical
therapy, occupational therapy, pharmacy, nursing, social work, and nutrition.

Practitioners/Physician Assistants, and Critical Care Physicians from the
Department of Medicine, Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care.

including direct patient care, patient/family education and transitions of care.
The RN supports professional nursing practice across practice settings and
across the continuum of care to meet the needs of the patient and family. The RN
will function within the Mayo Clinic Nursing Professional Practice Model, which
includes accountability for planning, implementing, evaluating and communicating
all phases of nursing care for assigned patients. The ANA Nursing: Scope and
Standards of Practice provide a basis for the practice of the RN. The RN
provides leadership through activities such as preceptor role, informal and
formal leadership roles, and quality improvement efforts. The RN delegates
patient care according to skill level, experience, patient acuity, fiscal
accountability and availability of resources. The RN possesses excellent
communication skills; is skillful in mentoring and teaching; and may participate
on committees or projects. A subset of employees may be required to drive their
personal vehicle as a part of the responsibility of their role.
