Job description

This assessment requires a Registered Nurse with at least two years of recent acute care experience, ideally comfortable with telemetry and medical, surgical, and oncology patient populations. The role involves working 12-hour night shifts on a busy telemetry unit, providing critical monitoring and medication administration for patients including those undergoing chemo, radiation, or comfort/end-of-life care. While the work environment is fast-paced, you'll gain valuable experience in a supportive team with 24/7 access to specialists and a focus on high-quality patient monitoring. Be prepared for some charting, IV starts, and port access — all within a team that values strong skills and independent judgment. This assignment features a rotation every other weekend, with specific holiday coverage, and offers opportunities to deepen telemetry expertise in a lively setting.
