ICU Nurses

ICU Nurses monitor patients for changes in their condition, give medicines and specialist treatments and attend to the patient's personal needs. Bedside nurses care for a maximum of two patients. They spend the most time with the patient and will be able to answer questions about the patient's care. They are supported by clinical technicians, health care assistants, a nurse-in-charge (deputy sister, sister, or charge nurse), renal nurse specialists and research nurses. The nursing team is managed by critical care matrons.
