- Growth and development: Benefit from structured orientation, access to continuing education credits, and opportunities to advance within med-surg, with potential pathways to leadership or specialty tracks. Build resilience and clinical confidence through hands-on practice and mentorship.
- Compensation and perquisites: Weekly pay range of $2,041-$2,233 with guaranteed 36 hours per week. A signing bonus, housing assistance or stipend, and extension opportunities enhance the package.
