RN: Telemetry

Job Description:

Join a travel RN role supporting Med/Surg and Telemetry in Shelby, North Carolina, where your nights are focused on monitoring, coordination, and reliable execution across a broad mix of medical-surgical diagnoses. This assignment is built around 12-hour night shifts and includes weekend rotation (every other), with the possibility of low-census call back. On the unit, you’ll handle a steady variety of cases including total joint replacements, colon resection, gallbladder and appendectomy care, amputations, hip fractures, SBO management with NG tubes, and medical overflow - working alongside a full support team that includes CNA assistance for vitals, mobility, turning, baths, and blood sugars, as well as telemetry monitoring/tech resources and 24/7 coverage from hospitalists, intensivists, and respiratory therapy.

You’ll be using EPIC and unit technology including Alaris IV pumps and Omnicell medication dispensing, with monitoring equipment such as Phillips monitors. A strong Med/Tele skillset is essential - cardiac rhythm interpretation, experience with non-titrating cardiac drips (Cardizem/Amiodarone), wound care, drain/tube management, PIV starts, and central line management - plus BLS, ACLS, and NIHSS. If you’re open to occasional floating within the region and scope of practice, this contract offers that flexibility (floating mid-shift keeps you on the clock while traveling between facilities).

Weather:

Expect generally mild conditions with a mix of sunny and partly cloudy days. Humidity can build at times, and occasional rain showers may pass through.

Fun Things To Do:

• Explore Kings Mountain State Park for trails and scenic overlooks (day trip).
• Visit the U.S. National Whitewater Center in Charlotte for outdoor activities and views (day trip).
• Stroll through downtown Shelby for local shops, dining, and seasonal events.
• Check out local history at the Cleveland County Museum of History.
• Enjoy a relaxing evening at the Margaret T. Walter Memorial Park area.
