Step into a purpose driven role as a Registered Nurse specializing in PCU, where every shift is an opportunity to guide patients through critical steps toward recovery and independence. In this position you will apply keen assessment skills, acute‑care judgment, and compassionate communication to support patients with complex needs who require close monitoring, cardiorespiratory support, and careful transition planning. Your expertise will empower families and teammates alike as you collaborate with physicians, unit teams, and case managers to craft individualized care plans that promote safety, dignity, and timely progression toward discharge. This role is not only a clinical assignment; it’s a chance to influence outcomes, grow professionally, and contribute to a high‑performing PCU that values continuous learning and evidence‑based practice. Kansas offers a backdrop of vibrant communities, where the pace can be brisk in city life yet relaxed in suburban neighborhoods, creating a balanced environment for healing and professional development. Separately, Kansas reveals quiet beauty—from sunlit prairies and sprawling river valleys to charming towns and regional parks—providing inspiration and a steady rhythm that supports resilience and well‑being.

Joining our team in Olathe, Kansas, places you in a thriving suburb of the Kansas City metro with accessible amenities, strong school systems, recreational trails, and community resources that support work‑life balance. Olathe’s welcoming neighborhoods, restaurants, and cultural events create a comfortable base after shifts. The role also offers the flexibility to work across various locations in the U.S., expanding your professional exposure, network, and career options.

Role specifics and benefits: You’ll provide direct patient care in the Progressive Care Unit, monitoring vitals, supporting patients with unstable conditions as they stabilize, and coordinating care with the critical care continuum. You’ll administer medications, titrate therapies as ordered, manage IVs and devices, perform frequent assessments, and document changes in condition with accuracy. You’ll participate in care planning, discharge planning, and patient and family education to ensure understanding of treatment goals and self‑care after transfer. You’ll mentor and collaborate with new staff and nursing assistants, reinforcing safe practice and quality outcomes. Growth opportunities include expanded responsibilities, cross‑training in telemetry and post‑operative care, and potential clinical leadership roles on future assignments. We provide a robust benefits package: a competitive weekly pay range of $2,095 to $2,116, with the possibility of bonuses based on performance and tenure, housing assistance to ease relocation and lodging during assignments, and options to extend contracts to align with personal and professional plans.
