Travel Registered Nurse Med Surg Job

Step into a purpose-driven Travel Registered Nurse role focused on Medical-Surgical care in Tuba City, Arizona, and become a catalyst for healing in a community that values resilience, compassion, and clinical excellence. As a Med-Surg RN, you will deliver comprehensive, patient-centered nursing to adults with a wide range of diagnoses—from post-operative recovery to acute medical presentations—translating evidence-based practice into tangible outcomes. This assignment is more than a rotation; it’s a platform to influence recovery trajectories, mentor teammates, and contribute to a hospital team that prizes accuracy, empathy, and continuous growth. In the glow of Arizona’s sunlit mornings, you’ll be immersed in landscapes that inspire—red rock vistas, the Painted Desert’s quiet majesty, and canyon country that invites reflection after a demanding shift. Beyond the bedside, you’ll discover a region rich in culture and natural beauty, offering a balanced lifestyle that complements the demands of high-quality clinical care. For professionals who crave variety, our program unlocks the opportunity to work in diverse locations across the United States, allowing you to tailor your travel path to personal preferences while maintaining a solid, supportive framework.

Location benefits go beyond a single hospital floor. Tuba City presents a collaborative clinical environment where multidisciplinary teams prioritize patient advocacy, safety, and consistent care. You’ll partner with seasoned nurses, physicians, therapists, and case managers who value teamwork and open communication. The community-facing nature of care here provides meaningful interactions with patients and families, often across language and cultural boundaries, enriching your professional perspective and sharpening your therapeutic communication skills. If you’re drawn to exploration, the program also offers placements in other settings nationwide, giving you a chance to experience urban, suburban, and rural facilities—each with distinct case mixes and learning opportunities. Housing assistance is available to ease relocation, and the assignment structure supports steady, reliable hours so you can plan personal time as well as professional milestones. With guaranteed hours at 36 per week, you can build financial stability while expanding your clinical repertoire through varied patient populations and care models.

Role specifics and benefits are designed to maximize professional satisfaction and growth. In this Med-Surg RN role, you will: perform comprehensive patient assessments, monitor vital signs, interpret data, and implement evidence-based nursing interventions; administer medications and IV therapies with precision; manage wound care, post-operative care, early mobilization, and escalation of care as needed; coordinate with physicians and the broader care team for timely orders, discharge planning, and safe transitions to home or next care settings; provide patient and family education to support self-management, pain control, and understanding of treatment plans; and maintain meticulous, compliant documentation in the electronic health record. You’ll have opportunities to advance within the specialty, including formal preceptorship for newer staff and potential leadership pathways as you build expertise in Med-Surg across diverse patient populations. The package features a competitive weekly pay range of $1,904 to $2,090, plus a sign-on bonus where applicable, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions based on performance and unit needs. Your schedule is built around guaranteed 36 hours per week, with the added assurance of 24/7 support from our dedicated travel team as you rotate between assignments. A responsive travel operations team, along with clinical support specialists and credentialing assistance, is available around the clock to address housing, transport, and onboarding needs, so you can focus on delivering high-quality patient care.

Company values emphasize empowering your career journey within a supportive, mission-driven environment. Our organization is committed to cultivating a culture of respect, continuous learning, and professional advancement.
