Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Nurse, Nurse Educator, in Hermiston, Oregon, beginning February 20, 2026, for a multi-week assignment that guarantees 36 hours per week. This unique position places you at the heart of clinical excellence, where your expertise shapes the next generation of compassionate nurses, elevates patient outcomes, and drives sustainable improvements across teams and departments. You’ll lead the design, implementation, and evaluation of education initiatives that empower staff to deliver safe, evidence-based care with confidence. Picture yourself guiding onboarding for new graduates, tailoring continuing education to meet evolving clinical standards, and partnering with nurses and leaders to foster a culture of learning, curiosity, and resilience. Your contributions will echo through shifts, units, and patient stories, building a stronger, more competent workforce every day. As a Nurse Educator, you’ll blend clinical mastery with instructional finesse, turning everyday encounters into lasting learning experiences that uplift morale, reduce turnover, and promote professional growth.
Separately, Oregon’s natural beauty provides a backdrop that refreshes the mind and fuels enduring dedication. From the crystalline depths of Crater Lake to the windswept coastline and the stunning volcanic peaks of the Cascades, the state rewards explorers and caretakers alike with outdoor renewal. The Willamette Valley’s green tapestry and vibrant fall colors invite reflective breaks between clinical sessions. Hermiston’s own community charm—friendly neighborhoods, local eateries, and seasonal events—creates a balanced environment where you can recharge after meaningful days at work. Whether you’re drawn to quiet river towns or the broader opportunities across the Pacific Northwest, Oregon offers a setting that supports your well-being while you advance your professional mission.
Location benefits combine the appeal of Hermiston with the flexibility of a nationwide educational role. Working in Hermiston provides exposure to a tight-knit healthcare community and access to regional academic partners, simulation labs, and nursing leadership that value teaching as a cornerstone of quality care. For the right educator, there’s also the possibility to broaden horizons by engaging in assignments at diverse facilities across the United States, enriching your experience with varied patient populations, care models, and educational challenges. You’ll enjoy a supportive infrastructure designed to minimize disruption to your personal life while maximizing professional impact: streamlined onboarding, access to robust learning platforms, opportunities to collaborate with physician and nursing leaders, and the chance to witness how education translates into measurable patient care improvements across specialties and acuities. The blend of a friendly local setting with the potential for nationwide travel creates a compelling platform for sustained growth and fulfillment.
Role specifics and benefits center on you as a clinician-educator and a catalyst for nursing excellence. Your core responsibilities will include developing and delivering evidence-based educational programs for both new and seasoned staff, coordinating onboarding curricula, and shaping competency assessments across units. You’ll lead in-service trainings, simulations, and micro-learning modules, tailoring content to address gaps, policy updates, and new technologies. You’ll partner with nursing leadership to align education with patient safety initiatives, quality metrics, and accreditation standards, while tracking outcomes to drive continuous improvement. The role offers substantial professional growth within the Nurse Educator track, with opportunities to advance toward lead educator, program director, or regional education roles as your track record of improving staff performance, retention, and patient satisfaction grows. In this travel-education capacity, you’ll benefit from a comprehensive package that includes a competitive weekly pay of $2,864 to $2,960, with 36 guaranteed hours, and a start date that aligns with organizational needs. In addition to salary, you can anticipate housing assistance and a signing or retention bonus designed to acknowledge your expertise and commitment. Contract extensions are encouraged for educators who demonstrate impact and compatibility with the facility’s educational goals. Importantly, you’ll receive 24/7 support from a dedicated travel education team, ensuring you have guidance, resources, and problem-solving assistance whenever you need them on assignment. The combination of a robust support network, meaningful educational impact, and structured growth paths makes this an ideal opportunity for Nurse Educators seeking both stability and variety.
