Job description
Join us for a travel nursing opportunity at a busy emergency department located in Worcester, MA. This 13-week contract involves 12-hour day shifts from 7:00 AM to 7:30 PM, offering a chance to dive into a fast-paced ED setting with a focus on critical care. If you're comfortable with telemetry, medication administration, and titrating cardiac drips, you'll find this role both challenging and rewarding. Prepare for a couple of pass/fail exams during orientation—think of them as hurdles to showcase your skills rather than obstacles. This assignment is perfect for nurses with 1-2 years of recent ER experience who enjoy a supportive environment and a chance to make an immediate impact.
