Job Description

Join a 13-week travel assignment in a five-suite Cardiac Cath Lab supporting coronary, vascular, peripheral, electrophysiology, neurointerventional, and general interventional radiology procedures. As a travel RN, you will provide conscious and moderate sedation, support airway management, manage cardiac drips such as Integrilin, dopamine, and vasopressin, and work with balloon pumps. Scrubbing is not required, but current cath lab experience is essential. Case volume varies from approximately 10 to 22 cases per day, and start times typically fall between 6:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m., or continue until cases are complete. Weekend operations are closed, though rotating call coverage may include urgent, emergent, and inpatient cases. BLS, ACLS, and AHA-approved NIHSS certification are required, along with a current California RN license. A radiation badge is provided, and orientation includes a basic EKG interpretation assessment. Pack your scrubs and your rhythm-recognition skills for this focused assignment.
