University of Vermont Medical Center- UVMMC
Mid Level
Step into a pivotal role as a Registered Nurse in Med Surg Tele in Burlington, Vermont. This is more than a temporary assignment—it’s an opportunity to influence patient outcomes, mentor teammates, and strengthen your clinical expertise on a fast-paced tele floor that blends medical-surgical acuity with advanced telemetry. You’ll apply evidence-based practice, coordinate care, and support patients through complex conditions, all while growing within a network that values clinical excellence and compassionate leadership. The Burlington setting offers a unique backdrop: a dynamic college-town vibe, a waterfront promenade along Lake Champlain, and easy access to seasonal adventures in the Green Mountains. Vermont’s natural beauty—fall foliage, sweeping mountain views, and inviting small-town charm—provides a balanced canvas for both professional impact and personal fulfillment. Your journey begins on 01/05/2026 for a multi-week assignment with extension opportunities, designed to align with your career goals and lifestyle preferences as you help shape outcomes for patients and families across the care continuum.
Location benefits: Burlington is renowned for its strong healthcare community, walkable downtown, farm-to-table dining, and cultural events. You’ll enjoy an outdoor-rich lifestyle with lakefront sunsets and proximity to nearby ski hills, trails, and parks, all within a welcoming, supportive environment that makes it easier to focus on patient care while balancing life outside the hospital. There can be opportunities to work in other locations across the U.S. within our network, expanding your professional footprint and exposing you to diverse patient populations, protocols, and teams. This flexibility allows you to broaden your experience while maintaining a home base in a place that values wellness and community.
Role specifics and benefits: In Med Surg Tele, you’ll monitor and stabilize medically complex patients, perform comprehensive assessments, administer medications and therapies, interpret telemetry, manage IVs, assist with procedures, participate in daily rounds, and execute discharge planning alongside case managers and families. You’ll collaborate with physicians, specialists, and nursing leadership to implement care plans, document precisely in electronic health records, and advocate for patient safety and comfort. The role supports professional growth through orientation programs, ongoing education, exposure to high-acuity protocols, and opportunities to take on leadership duties such as mentoring newer staff or serving as a unit resource nurse. We offer competitive weekly pay between $2,082 and $2,211, with a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease transition. The assignment includes potential extension opportunities, allowing you to deepen your integration with the team and the community. While the hours are flexible and not guaranteed, there is an emphasis on consistent, reliable scheduling to support your income goals. You’ll benefit from a comprehensive support system, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated travel support team, travel coordination, housing arrangements, and access to clinical educators who can help you stay current with best practices, ensuring you never feel alone on the road.
Company values and call to action: Our client company is committed to empowering staff, promoting career advancement, and maintaining a collaborative, supportive work environment where nurses feel heard, respected, and inspired to grow. The culture centers on teamwork, open communication, and a relentless focus on patient-centered care, while providing resources that help you thrive—from onboarding through ongoing professional development and career pathways, including leadership opportunities and continuity of care across assignments. If you’re ready to apply, seize this exciting chance to join a company that values your expertise and your ambitions. Bring your Med Surg Tele skills to Burlington and explore the extraordinary blend of clinical challenge, community connection, and personal growth that Vermont offers. Start date 01/05/2026, with weeks-long engagement and the possibility to extend as you and the hospital network plan your next steps.
