Job Description:

This ICU travel nursing role offers a unique opportunity to work bedside care within a 21-bed general ICU setting. As a travel RN, you will care for a diverse range of patients—including cardiac, neuro, neurosurgical, post-CV surgery, post-general surgery, and trauma cases—often with a 2:1 patient-to-nurse ratio. Shifts run overnight from 7:00 PM to 7:30 AM, with every other weekend on duty and no call responsibilities. This assignment is as much about honing intensive care skills as it is about experiencing the dynamic environment of a busy ICU, all while enjoying the camaraderie of your team.
