Embark on a meaningful journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Med Surg in Burlington, Vermont, with a start date of 03/23/2026. This role places you at the core of acute care, where skilled assessment, decisive action, and compassionate communication directly shape patient outcomes. In Med Surg you’ll manage a diverse spectrum of medical and postoperative cases, collaborate with a multidisciplinary team, and continually grow your expertise in complex care coordination. Beyond the hospital walls, Vermont offers an invitation to explore—Green Mountains vistas, Lake Champlain sunsets, and a welcoming, walkable community infused with fall foliage beauty, farm-to-table cuisine, and opportunities for outdoor adventures year-round.
Working in Burlington combines urban vitality with Vermont’s celebrated quality of life.

In this Med Surg RN role, you’ll deliver comprehensive patient care across a range of diagnoses, performing thorough head-to-toe assessments, monitoring vital signs, administering medications and IV therapies, managing wounds and dressings, supporting telemetry as needed, and coordinating timely discharge planning and patient education. You’ll partner with physicians, case management, and ancillary teams to develop individualized care plans, advocate for patient safety, and ensure smooth transitions from hospital to home or other care settings. The position offers room for professional growth through evidence-based practice, mentorship, specialty certifications, and ongoing education, with pathways to expanded responsibilities within the Med Surg continuum. You’ll participate in quality initiatives and learn to navigate complex case reviews, always aiming to elevate patient outcomes and family experience. To support your development, we provide structured opportunities for hands-on learning, simulation, and clinical coaching, plus access to resources that help you stay current with evolving standards of care.
We recognize the value you bring: competitive compensation with predictable, supportive benefits, a bonus structure, housing assistance where needed, and meaningful contract extension opportunities that reward your commitment and expertise. You’ll receive comprehensive support from a dedicated travel team offering 24/7 assistance, whether you’re onboarding, adjusting to a new unit, or navigating cross-site collaborations.
