Honolulu, HI
Contracted
The Queen's Medical Center
Mid Level
Step into a transformative opportunity as a Registered Nurse specializing in the Operating Room in Honolulu, Hawaii, where every procedure, every patient interaction, and every collaborative decision shapes outcomes with precision and care. This role invites skilled OR nurses to contribute to high-stakes surgical teams, delivering compassionate, evidence-based care in a setting that blends clinical excellence with the inviting warmth of the islands. Picture yourself applying meticulous sterile technique, coordinating with surgeons and anesthesia teams, and guiding patients through the perioperative journey with confidence and empathy. In this position, your expertise will elevate patient safety and efficiency, while you grow through diverse cases, advanced instrumentation, and cross-disciplinary collaboration. The beauty of Hawaii is not just a backdrop—it’s a partner in your well-being, offering pristine beaches, stunning sunsets, and a lifestyle that supports balance and resilience for a demanding specialty.
If you’re drawn to the prospect of practicing in a premier OR environment and enjoying locations across the U.S., this opportunity provides the best of both worlds. You’ll contribute within Hawaii’s dynamic health system, where advanced surgical suites and state-of-the-art equipment empower your practice, while also having the chance to be deployed to other locations across the country as assignments arise. This venue promises exposure to a broad spectrum of surgical subspecialties, enabling you to refine your skills, broaden your clinical horizon, and build a versatile portfolio that enhances your long-term career trajectory. Honolulu offers a rich blend of cultural heritage, outdoor adventures, and modern amenities, making downtime as meaningful as the workday. The prospect of frequent cross-location assignments means you’ll gain new clinical environments, diverse patient populations, and unique collaborations that challenge and sharpen your expertise.
In this role, you’ll own critical responsibilities that define perioperative success. You’ll perform comprehensive patient assessments preoperatively, ensure meticulous preparation and positioning, and manage intraoperative workflows with scrupulous attention to sterile technique and instrument integrity. You’ll support anesthesia plans, monitor patient responses, and assist the surgical team in delivering precise, timely care. Postoperatively, you’ll participate in effective handoffs, ensure pain control and recovery optimization, and document care with accuracy and regulatory compliance. The position promises meaningful professional growth, from advancing infection control practices to gaining leadership capabilities within rotating teams. You’ll have access to ongoing education, opportunities to pursue specialty certifications, and the chance to mentor junior staff, all while operating in a culture that values curiosity, compassion, and clinical excellence.
We also place a premium on competitive, comprehensive benefits that recognize your expertise and dedication. Expect a rewarding compensation package with a weekly pay range of $2,257 to $2,338, and guaranteed hours of 40 per week, ensuring stability as you plan your personal and professional life. In addition to competitive pay, the role includes housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing needs, reflecting our commitment to supporting your transition into a new environment. There are also extension opportunities to provide continuity for both you and the teams you serve, enabling enduring professional relationships and deeper integration into hospital cultures. We understand that travel can be demanding, which is why you’ll have 24/7 support from a dedicated team while you’re on assignment, ensuring you’re never alone when you need guidance, resources, or coordination with clinical leadership.
The company values a culture that empowers its staff to learn, grow, and advance. You’ll join an organization that prioritizes career development, recognizes expertise, and fosters a supportive, collaborative work environment. Our approach celebrates your voice, leverages your strengths, and aligns opportunities with your goals, whether that means stepping into mentorship roles, pursuing leadership positions, or expanding clinical competencies across perioperative care. You’ll be supported by colleagues who share a commitment to patient-centered care, safety, and continuous improvement, creating a professional home where your contributions are visible, valued, and rewarded.
If you’re ready to bring your OR nursing expertise to a setting that honors your skill set and your desire to explore new places, we invite you to apply. Embrace a role that champions your growth as a clinician and as a professional, with the added benefits of Hawaii’s beauty and the potential to work across diverse U.S. environments. This is more than a job—it’s a pathway to meaningful impact, personal enrichment, and a thriving, connected community of care.
