Job Description:
Join a 13-week travel RN assignment in a MedSurg/Tele float pool serving multiple inpatient units.

Patient populations include cardiac, pulmonary, renal, orthopedic, oncology, and general medical diagnoses.
This role includes caring for basic telemetry patients, reading and interpreting cardiac rhythms, and working with approximately five to six patients on most shifts. You will use CPAP and BiPAP equipment managed by respiratory therapy, collaborate with nursing assistants, and complete one to two orientation shifts with a preceptor. BLS and ACLS are required, and all travelers must pass a cardiac rhythm examination. Scrubs are royal blue.
