This is your opportunity to apply advanced clinical expertise, mentor teammates, and influence patient outcomes during some of the most challenging shifts in acute care. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be part of a dynamic team delivering high-stakes support to critically ill patients, guiding families, and collaborating with physicians to accelerate recovery. Missouri’s landscape adds a rhythm to your professional journey—vibrant neighborhoods, scenic riverfronts, and a blend of big-city amenities with small-town warmth. While you focus on patient care, you’ll also have the chance to explore beautiful Missouri places, from the Gateway Arch and the Mississippi Riverfront to rolling hills and state parks, all while building your career in a state that values compassionate, evidence-based nursing.

You’ll perform rapid assessments, lead evidence-based interventions, titrate vasoactive medications, coordinate with multidisciplinary rounds, and guide incoming staff through best practices. You’ll have opportunities for professional growth: pursue certifications in critical care, take on charge nurse responsibilities, mentor new grads, and contribute to quality improvement initiatives. Competitive benefits include a signing incentive, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions that reward consistency and mastery. We provide 24/7 support as you travel with the company, including access to travel coordinators, clinical specialists, and an experienced network ready to troubleshoot any challenge. The schedule emphasizes quality patient care while offering meaningful shifts and the chance to expand your professional repertoire without losing work-life balance.
