corrective action whenever information from monitoring equipment
shows adverse symptomatology. PCU Travel Nurses should be able to
stand and walk for long periods of time, as well as bend, lean and
stoop without difficulty. RNs should be able to easily lift 20
pounds. Moving or lifting of patients may require lifting of up to
