Anesthesiology Intensive Care Unit (AIT)
The special professional challenge!Our day-to-day work is varied and includes the perioperative treatment of patients from different surgical specialties or with polytrauma. The age spectrum ranges from infants to the elderly. Our employees are also involved in in-hospital emergency management, particularly in the treatment of difficult airways.
We see ourselves as a team - regardless of profession and hierarchies. It is important to us to work closely with our physicians, MTAs, physiotherapists and other professional groups in the interests of our patients. This also includes our daily early morning meeting and the associated joint daily planning as well as our weekly cross-professional case discussions.
The tasks of nursing care on our ward are diverse and very varied due to the different illnesses of our patients. We attach great importance to ensuring that our patients are as awake as possible and consistently rely on sedation-free intensive care. Early mobilization of our patients is also important to us.
