Job Description Job Description Embark on a dynamic journey as a Travel Registered Nurse in Med Surg, bringing compassionate, expert care to patients in Utica, New York, with opportunities to extend your impact across diverse settings throughout the United States. This multiweek assignment begins 03/16/2026, offering a robust schedule designed to maintain your clinical rhythm while expanding your professional horizons. As you step into fast paced med surg floors, you’ll not only care for diverse patient populations but also mentor peers, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, and refine your practice in acute care environments. While you focus on delivering high quality patient outcomes, you’ll experience the beauty and culture of New York State—from the Mohawk Valley’s charm to the surrounding natural landscapes that invite outdoor exploration after shifts. The state’s vibrant towns, thriving arts scenes, and historic neighborhoods provide a backdrop that complements your professional journey and personal growth. Location Benefits: Utica, NY, blends small-city warmth with contemporary healthcare facilities, offering a supportive community where you can settle in comfortably while delivering exceptional patient care. Utica’s affordable living, easy commutes, and access to cultural events create a balanced backdrop for a demanding nursing role. Beyond the assignment, you’ll have the chance to explore a variety of locations across the U.S., embracing the opportunity to experience different hospital cultures, patient populations, and clinical challenges. This flexibility allows you to diversify your skill set, build a broad network of clinical colleagues, and discover the unique attributes each region brings to nursing practice. Working in New York State affords you proximity to scenic Adirondack vistas, the scenic Hudson Valley, the Finger Lakes region, and vibrant city routes for weekend escapes, all while remaining firmly rooted in a supportive professional environment.

Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Med Surg RN, you’ll provide comprehensive patient care across a spectrum of medical conditions, monitoring vitals, administering medications, and coordinating through the care continuum from admission to discharge. Your responsibilities will include wound care, IV therapy, post operative assessments, rapid response collaboration, and patient and family education on disease processes, medication regimens, rehabilitation plans, and discharge instructions. You’ll participate in care planning meetings, contribute to evidence based practice, and guide less experienced team members, cultivating leadership skills that propel your career in acute care. The role offers ample professional growth within med surg specialties through exposure to complex cases, postoperative recovery, and chronic disease management, with opportunities to pursue certifications or additional training aligned with your interests and the facility’s needs. Our compensation package reflects current market standards and includes a competitive weekly pay range of $2,084–$2,160, with guaranteed 36.0 hours per week to underpin financial stability. In addition, you’ll have access to a sign on or performance bonus where applicable, a comprehensive housing assistance program to ease transition costs, and potential extension opportunities that recognize consistency, adaptability, and excellence in patient care. We provide extensive support for traveling clinicians, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated support team to address scheduling, credentialing, clinical questions, housing logistics, and on shift issues. You’ll receive robust orientation, ongoing clinical resources, and access to a network of travel professionals who understand the realities of temporary assignments, ensuring your experience remains smooth, productive, and rewarding.
