Mid Level
Step into a pivotal role as a Registered Nurse in PCU, where clinical excellence meets compassionate leadership in patient recovery. In this specialty, you’ll guide adults through nuanced transitions from acute care to stable recuperation, shaping outcomes with precise assessments, vigilant monitoring, and thoughtful patient education. Envision the impact you can make shift after shift, partnering with physicians, therapists, and families to illuminate the path from hospitalization to home. This opportunity sits in the scenic and historically rich setting of Plattsburgh, New York, a gateway to the Adirondack region and Lake Champlain, while also offering the chance to contribute across diverse locations in the United States through our network.
New York’s Plattsburgh blends a welcoming, community‑oriented healthcare environment with access to outdoor splendor and strong professional resources. You’ll work within a collegial team that values patient‑centered care, supports your ongoing development, and provides a nurturing setting for mentors and peers to share knowledge. For those drawn to travel nursing or multi‑location assignments, the program offers pathways to gain experience in multiple facilities, refining your practice while engaging with varied populations, protocols, and technologies. Whether you’re near the water’s edge or charting a course to new regional units, the experience is designed to broaden your clinical perspective and deepen your confidence.
In this PCU RN role, you will perform comprehensive patient assessments, monitor telemetry and vital signs, administer and titrate medications within scope, and respond promptly to changes in condition. You’ll coordinate with the multidisciplinary team to develop and execute care plans, facilitate safe transitions to step‑down units or home, and deliver education to patients and families that supports autonomy and adherence. You’ll engage in advanced clinical skills, manage IV therapies, interpret laboratory results, and participate in discharge planning that reduces rehospitalization risk. There is significant opportunity for professional growth: you can pursue certifications, expand leadership responsibilities, and influence quality improvement initiatives within your unit. The position supports ongoing learning and skill expansion, with access to mentorship and structured pathways to advance your practice in the PCU specialty.
Compensation and benefits are designed to recognize your expertise and dedication. Weekly pay ranges from $2,390 to $2,475, reflecting competitive markets and the value you bring to critical recovery care. The assignment includes a comprehensive package that may feature a sign‑on bonus, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions based on performance, unit needs, and your preferences. You’ll enjoy robust support for travel and relocation, including 24/7 assistance from our dedicated team to ensure smooth transitions, seamless onboarding, and timely problem resolution. You’ll also have access to deployment flexibility, orientation programs, and continuous 24/7 clinical and operational support during your travels with the company.
Our organization is grounded in empowering staff, fostering career advancement, and sustaining a collaborative, supportive work environment. We believe your clinical judgment matters, your professional voice belongs at the table, and your growth as a nurse is central to delivering outstanding patient care. You’ll find a culture that promotes mentorship, ongoing education, work‑life balance, and recognition of achievement, all designed to help you reach your highest potential while delivering compassionate care to patients in diverse settings.
