Travel Registered Nurse OR Job

Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in the Operating Room, with a prime focus in Phoenix, Arizona. In this role, your vigilance, technical mastery, and compassionate presence are essential to guiding patients through some of their most pivotal moments. You’ll work alongside surgeons, anesthesiologists, and a dynamic care team to deliver precise, patient-centered care that supports faster recoveries and safer outcomes. From meticulous prepping and sterile technique to adept anticipation of equipment needs and swift intraoperative decision-making, your expertise will drive seamless procedures and confident patient experiences. You’ll have the chance to refine your surgical nursing skills across diverse cases, from general to orthopedic, cardiovascular to neurosurgery, all while contributing to a culture that values safety, dignity, and teamwork. The Phoenix area offers a fast-paced, technologically advanced setting where your leadership in the OR can shine, and where you can see the tangible impact of your dedication every day.

Arizona’s allure goes beyond the hospital walls. Phoenix’s sunlit days and vibrant, growing metro area combine a high quality of life with access to outstanding outdoor experiences. You’ll enjoy close proximity to iconic landscapes—from scenic desert trails and desert botanical gardens to nearby canyons and starlit skies. The region’s culinary scene, arts, and communities provide balance to demanding shifts, while a robust healthcare ecosystem supports your professional growth. And for those curious about new horizons, this opportunity can expand into assignments across the United States, offering you the chance to experience a spectrum of hospital environments, patient populations, and surgical specialties. The flexibility to explore different facilities, sizes, and care models ensures you’ll continually expand your clinical repertoire, all while returning to the Phoenix base with fresh perspectives and renewed expertise.

In this role, you’ll own core responsibilities that empower you to advance as a specialized OR nurse. Prepare and position patients, assist with circulating duties and instrument handling, ensure strict adherence to sterile technique and safety protocols, manage equipment and pass instruments with precision, assist with anesthesia-related activities as appropriate, and participate in rigorous team briefings and timeouts to optimize surgical planning. You’ll monitor patient status intraoperatively, document care trajectories, coordinate with post-anesthesia teams, and participate in postoperative reporting to ensure smooth handoffs. The position also invites you to grow through ongoing professional development, expanding your scope within the OR, pursuing specialty certifications, and taking on leadership opportunities. You’ll benefit from competitive compensation—weekly pay ranging from $2,505 to $2,662, with guaranteed hours at 24 per week—plus a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and contract extensions designed to deepen your expertise and stabilize your work-life rhythm.
