Nurses within the Medical Surgical Float Pool assigned to the Stat team carry a pager and work multiple units. Each float pool nurse will receive orientation to the physical unit and the nursing care requirements of the patients on that unit and campus. During her/his orientation, the nurse shall be assigned to an RN preceptor from the unit's permanent staff for clinical guidance as needed. Orientation will be appropriate to the assignment and will be dependent upon the nurse's previous experience and familiarity with the nursing unit and patient population. If issues arise resulting from floating between campuses, such matters may be brought to the Labor Management Committee.
