Job Description:

This travel nursing opportunity places you on a Med/Surg/Peds unit in Devils Lake, North Dakota, where you’ll manage a diverse patient population ranging from pediatrics to geriatrics. Your day could involve caring for patients with respiratory issues, infectious diseases, GI conditions, or those recovering from alcohol-related complications. The role requires adapting to different acuity levels, including occasional ICU-like patients, while working alongside a dedicated team with a nurse-to-patient ratio that varies based on patient condition and shift. Expect to titrate medications like insulin, Lasix, and Heparin, and to interpret vital sign readings and monitors. Shifts are 12-hour rotating days and nights, offering a well-rounded experience in a setting that emphasizes versatility and quick thinking. A nurse coordinator is available for support, but you’ll have autonomy in a fast-paced environment that demands strong clinical judgment and a flexible skill set. This assignment is a great fit for nurses eager to expand their acute care expertise in a collaborative setting with minimal call and a steady schedule.
