Job Description:

Step into a high-acuity CVICU assignment in Reston, Virginia supporting a brand-new cardiac surgery program launch. This travel healthcare contract is built around 12-hour nights, delivering 36 hours per week with a schedule that includes 3 weekend shifts every 4 weeks. You’ll work in a unit where advanced hemodynamic and mechanical support experience matters, including balloon pump and Impella training, along with Hemosphere or Acumen experience preferred.

What makes this role unique is the combination of fresh post–cardiac surgery recovery experience and the expectation of strong readiness with ACLS. Bring 1–2 years working with fresh cardiac surgery patients in a direct primary recovery context, and you’ll be joining a team centered on reliable execution, clear documentation, and tech-forward workflow using Meditech Expanse.

Weather:

Expect crisp, cool air with occasional mild days and a mix of dry conditions and light precipitation. Evenings can feel noticeably cooler, so layering is usually a good idea.

Fun Things To Do:

• Reston Town Center: stroll shops and grab a meal near the lakefront area.
• Lake Anne Village Center: enjoy waterfront views and local seasonal events.
• George Washington’s Mount Vernon (day trip): tour the historic estate along the Potomac.
• Washington, DC Memorials & Museums (day trip): explore iconic sites and major museums.
• Dulles Greenway and trail walks: unwind with scenic paths and easy outdoor time.
