Job Description:

This travel assignment is designed for an experienced Registered Nurse with true cardiac-unit experience. You will care for patients with myocardial infarctions, congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, peripheral vascular disease, and renal conditions while also managing some medical-surgical overflow. The role includes caring for patients receiving cardiac drips, completing floor cardioversions, monitoring post-cardiac-catheterization access sites, and supporting patients requiring BiPAP, high-flow oxygen, or occasional chest tubes. Nurses should be comfortable caring for dialysis patients and managing a high volume of admissions and discharges. The overnight shift runs from 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM in a collaborative, fast-paced cardiac setting where seasoned clinical judgment is important.
