Step into a pivotal role as a Registered Nurse in Med Surg in Idaho's welcoming communities, where every shift is a chance to impact patient outcomes, mentor teammates, and grow within a specialty that honors both science and compassion. This travel opportunity places you in Pocatello, a city known for its friendly neighborhoods, vibrant local culture, and proximity to outdoor adventures that refresh after a meaningful day at the bedside. As you envision the difference you’ll make, imagine the pride of caring for patients across diverse Med Surg cases, refining your assessment skills, coordinating complex discharges, and collaborating with physicians, therapists, and support staff who share your commitment to excellence. Idaho’s stunning landscapes—the rugged Bannock Range, easy access to rugged trails, and nearby national forests—offer quick escapes to clear your mind, whether you’re exploring Craters of the Moon or taking a scenic weekend drive to Sun Valley. This is more than a job; it’s a gateway to professional enrichment in a state that celebrates independent spirit and strong community.

Location benefits go beyond the bedside. Pocatello combines the comforts of a mid-size city with the opportunity to learn from experienced teams in a region known for trauma and general surgical care. Travel assignments also offer potential to work in various locations across the U.S., allowing you to expand your clinical perspective, adapt to different hospital cultures, and experience healthcare delivery in urban, suburban, and rural settings. When you’re in Idaho, you’ll appreciate shorter commutes, affordable living options tied to robust housing assistance, and a supportive, close-knit staff that values patient-centered care, evidence-based practice, and sustainable work-life balance. Whether you’re drawn to high-volume med-surg floors or units with complex post-op recovery needs, your adaptability will be celebrated, and your expertise will be applied in ways that continually sharpen your practice.

In this role, you’ll be a frontline caregiver and critical thinker. Your core responsibilities will include comprehensive patient assessments, monitoring and interpreting vital signs, administering medications safely, and delivering evidence-based interventions tailored to diverse medical-surgical conditions. You’ll contribute to care planning, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, and document meticulously to ensure seamless transitions from hospital to home. You’ll have the chance to mentor newer staff, participate in rounds, and lead initiatives that improve patient flow, reduce complications, and elevate the patient experience. As you demonstrate clinical mastery, you’ll discover opportunities for professional growth within the Med Surg specialty—whether expanding to oncology, post-anesthesia recovery, or telemetry-adjacent pathways—while you gain confidence in leadership and quality-improvement projects that showcase your impact. The position offers a competitive weekly pay range of 1,497 to 1,617, with start date on 02/23/2026 and assignments described in weeks, allowing for flexible patterns that align with your life and career goals. A robust package is designed to empower you from day one: a signing or completion bonus to recognize your commitment, housing assistance to ease transition, and extension opportunities that let you stay connected with a team you’ve already come to trust. With 24/7 support while traveling with the company, you’re never alone—our dedicated clinical liaison and travel operations teams are available around the clock to handle scheduling, credentialing, and on-site needs, so you can focus on care.

The company behind this opportunity is built on empowerment, not hierarchy. We are committed to supporting your career advancement, offering ongoing education credits, specialty certifications, and mentorship that refines your clinical skills while you expand your professional network. Our environment is designed to be collaborative, inclusive, and supportive, promoting open communication, respect for diverse backgrounds, and a shared goal of excellent patient outcomes.
