What is an ICU Nurse?

ICU nurses treat patients who require the utmost care due to critical conditions. Unlike an ER RN, this role will typically only see a few patients per day so they can provide their full attention to the details of each patient. Due to the extensive documentation per patient, ICU RNs typically see 1-3 patients per shift so they can provide thorough and detailed care.
