Job Description:

Step into a 13-week travel contract as a MedSurg RN in Iron River, Michigan—covering a 25-bed unit with a shift rhythm built for night owls. This role runs on 12-hour nights with 72 hours per week, with floating to the ED within your competency when needed. You’ll care for a patient mix that commonly includes geriatric cases involving CHF or COPD, plus diabetes-related activity on the MedSurg floor.

Expect a charting-and-workflow-forward assignment using CareScape patient monitors, Epic EMR, and Pyxis for medication distribution. The schedule includes every other weekend/holiday rotation, and there may be low census situations where you’re placed on call, with a minimum two-hour call back.

To be successful, you’ll bring 2+ years of MedSurg experience and must have ICU and ER experience. ACLS is preferred (not required). Required credentials include a current Michigan RN license and AHA BLS—then you’re ready to bring your skills to a unit that keeps you moving through the night, case by case.

Weather:

Expect cool to cold conditions with frequent cloud cover, occasional wind, and the possibility of snowfall or rain mixed with chilly temperatures. Plan for wintery travel conditions and be ready for brisk evenings.

Fun Things To Do:

• Go to Pattison State Park for scenic lakeshore walks and viewpoints.
• Day trip to Copper Harbor for waterfront views and local charm.
• Day trip to Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park for hiking trails and waterfall lookouts.
• Visit local shops and diners in downtown Iron River.
