You’ll lead the charge on triage, acute stabilization, and patient advocacy, guiding diverse teams through critical moments with confidence and clinical excellence. This role launches on the Start Date: 03/02/2026 and is structured as weeks-long assignments designed to deliver meaningful, repeatable impact while you expand your ER repertoire. Beyond the hospital walls, consider the beauty of New York state—the winding rivers, the rolling hills, the cultural vibrancy, and the seasonal splendor from Adirondack trails to Finger Lakes vistas—that remind you why you chose a career dedicated to healing and community. Your work in Utica can open doors to locations across the U.S., enriching your experience and sharpening your professional perspective while you grow within a supportive framework tailored to traveling ER professionals.

Location Benefits: Utica offers a welcoming community with strong hospital networks, accessible services, and a supportive environment for traveling clinicians. You’ll enjoy a convenient, predictable local rhythm with opportunities to collaborate closely with stable hospital teams while soaking in a unique upstate ambiance—historic neighborhoods, nearby natural beauty, and a cost of living that makes it feasible to settle in comfortably during your assignments. The position’s framework also provides the flexibility to work at other locations across the United States, diversifying your clinical exposure from urban trauma centers to rural emergency departments. This broad exposure helps you master varied trauma protocols, patient populations, and resource environments, all while maintaining a consistent guaranteed hours structure and a dependable schedule. In addition to professional growth, Utica’s proximity to cultural attractions, dining, arts, and outdoor recreation offers meaningful downtime to recharge between shifts, enhancing your overall travel experience and long-term well-being.

Role Specifics and Benefits: In this ER RN role, you’ll perform core responsibilities that blend rapid clinical decision-making with meticulous patient assessment. Key duties include triage prioritization, rapid physical assessments, continuous monitoring of vital signs, initiating and titrating therapies, administering medications, managing airway support when needed, initiating IV access, performing wound care, coordinating diagnostics and imaging, and documenting clearly in electronic medical records. You’ll collaborate with physicians, surgeons, ED techs, EMS partners, and specialty consultants to coordinate complex care plans, participate in code responses, and contribute to post-event debriefings. The position foregrounds professional growth within emergency care, offering opportunities to deepen expertise in trauma protocols, airway management, shock resuscitation, and emergent procedures. Benefits are competitive and designed to recognize your expertise, including a sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and potential extension opportunities that allow you to plan ongoing engagement beyond the initial weeks. You’ll receive guaranteed hours of 36.0 per week, with the possibility of additional shifts based on unit demand and travel block availability. A dedicated support structure accompanies every assignment, including 24/7 assistance from travel and clinical leadership teams, onboarding resources, and ongoing access to clinical mentors. Your professional development is further supported by ongoing access to contemporary nursing resources, simulation experiences, and continuing education stipends that translate into enhanced patient outcomes for diverse populations across the ER spectrum.

Company Values: Our organization is built on empowering clinicians to grow within a supportive, collaborative environment. You’ll find clear pathways for career advancement, mentorship from seasoned ER leaders, and opportunities to influence best practices through feedback and quality improvement initiatives. The company emphasizes transparent communication, flexible scheduling where possible, and a culture that values your safety, well-being, and professional voice. By prioritizing staff development, constructive performance feedback, and inclusive teamwork, we enable you to elevate patient care while progressing toward leadership roles within the emergency department ecosystem. This is more than a contract—it's a community that recognizes your dedication, amplifies your skills, and invests in your long-term success as a critical member of the emergency care team.
