  I cared for ICU patients at a small hospital with limited resources. This job required RNs to function in many roles, such as managing ventilators, drawing ABGs, and managing critical patients with no MD present. I functioned as the house supervisor for a small hospital with limited resources. My roles were to fill pharmacy orders, run ABGs, assist in ER and OB, manage codes and emergencies, manage staffing, and handle patient transfers.
