Job Description:

Join our team for a 17-week contract in Sacramento’s vibrant healthcare scene, working in the Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU). You’ll be responsible for monitoring and caring for patients recovering from surgeries such as total hips, knees, neuro, urology, and general procedures. The role involves 12-hour day shifts, with opportunities to read and interpret EKG strips, making this a perfect fit for acute recovery experienced professionals seeking a rewarding challenge in a well-equipped PACU setting. The assignment offers a chance to thrive in a supportive environment, with orientation in PACU and the possibility of floating between units as needed. This isn’t just any recovery role — it’s a chance to be part of a busy, efficient unit with ICU patients sometimes sharing the space, especially until beds open up.

Weather:

Expect generally mild and pleasant weather around this time of year, with the occasional warm sunny days ideal for outdoor activities. Sacramento’s climate offers a comfortable balance, making it easy to enjoy a walk or outdoor dining after your shift.

Fun Things To Do:

  • Exploring the California State Capitol and its lush surrounding gardens.
  • Day trip to Lake Tahoe for scenic views and outdoor adventures.
  • Visit the Old Sacramento historic district and enjoy riverfront dining.
  • Hiking in the American River Pkwy for a breath of fresh air.
  • Take a day trip to Napa Valley for wine tasting and vineyard tours.
