Travel Registered Nurse ICU Job

Embark on an essential journey as a Registered Nurse in ICU in Phoenix, Arizona, where your clinical expertise translates into lifesaving care for critically ill adults. In this high-stakes environment, you’ll collaborate with physicians, respiratory therapists, nurse managers, and bedside teams to stabilize patients through complex trajectories—from septic shock and multi-organ support to postoperative recovery following major procedures. Your impact extends beyond the vitals board: informed family updates, thoughtful advocacy, and the practical application of evidence-based protocols help patients regain strength and families find hope. This opportunity honors your skill set and provides a clear path to deepen specialization in critical care, all within a city that blends innovation, culture, and sunshine. Arizona’s beauty is more than scenery—it’s a backdrop for a resilient career. Phoenix offers a thriving professional scene with leading hospitals, interdisciplinary collaboration, and a commitment to advancing patient care. The region’s warm winters, outdoor recreation, and dynamic food and arts scenes create a balanced lifestyle that sustains your energy during demanding shifts. For nurses who crave variety, there is also the possibility to collaborate with a national network that supports assignments across multiple U.S. locations, enriching your experience while keeping you grounded in a renowned ICU program.

In this ICU RN role, you’ll be entrusted with key responsibilities that reflect the breadth and depth of critical care. You’ll perform meticulous patient assessments, monitor hemodynamics, titrate ventilator and vasopressor support, manage lines and devices, and administer medications with precision and safety. You’ll coordinate with perfusionists, pharmacists, and palliative care teams to align treatment with patient goals. You’ll lead or participate in rounds, contribute to evidence-based care plans, implement infection control measures, and ensure seamless transitions during shifts. The role is designed not only to meet today’s acuity needs but to cultivate leadership potential—opportunities to pursue specialty certifications, participate in quality improvement projects, and step into expanded responsibilities as you grow.

Compensation and benefits are structured to acknowledge the expertise you bring and to support your personal and professional life. The assignment offers weekly pay between $1,984 and $2,144, with guaranteed 24 hours per week, and a duration measured in weeks to match facility needs. You’ll also have access to a competitive package that may include a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities should you choose to stay with the program beyond the initial term. In addition, a comprehensive support network is available 24/7 while you travel with the company, ensuring you are never alone on the road or at the hospital. From travel logistics to credentialing and hospital onboarding, the program is designed to minimize friction so you can focus on patient care.

We invest in your growth through mentorship, continuing education, leadership development, and clear pathways to higher responsibilities within the ICU specialty.
