Job Description:

Join us as an experienced NICU nurse in a Level I trauma center located at the Anschutz Medical Campus. You'll be providing specialized care in a bustling 82-bed NICU with a nurse-to-patient ratio of 2:1. This 13-week contract offers 12-hour night shifts from 6:45 PM to 7:15 AM, giving you the chance to experience the vibrant atmosphere of Denver while working in a high-acuity environment that values your expertise. Your days will be filled with the rewarding challenge of caring for critically ill neonates, some of whom may transition within the unit, and you'll have opportunities to float within the NICU when needed, broadening your experience. This assignment is tailored for seasoned NICU nurses comfortable in a teaching hospital setting and prepared for the demands of a Level IV NICU. Prior travel experience is a plus but not required—this is an excellent opportunity to start or continue your travel nursing journey.
