Step into a rewarding, high-impact nursing opportunity as a Registered Nurse in Med Surg Tele, stationed in Rochester, New York. In this role, you’ll blend clinical excellence with compassionate care for medically complex adults who require coordinated, telemetry-guided treatment. You’ll lead plans of care, monitor evolving conditions, respond to changes in telemetry, and partner with physicians, therapists, and social work to ensure safe transitions from hospital to home. Your expertise will help patients regain stability, learn self-management skills, and maintain dignity throughout their hospital stay. This contract environment is designed to challenge you while supporting your growth—offering hands-on experience with diverse conditions, faster decision-making, and the satisfaction of seeing tangible outcomes. Rochester itself adds an enriching backdrop to your professional journey—with its vibrant neighborhoods, renowned food scene, museums, and outdoor spaces. And if you crave new horizons, the opportunity to work across multiple locations in the United States provides a platform to broaden your clinical horizons while keeping your core Med Surg Tele nursing skills sharp. Whether you’re returning to Rochester after a rotation or exploring a fresh city, you’ll find stability in structured shifts and a clear path to expanded responsibilities.
Working in Rochester offers a compelling blend of professional depth and personal enjoyment. You’ll be part of a robust healthcare community that emphasizes patient-centered outcomes, evidence-based practice, and collaborative care. The city’s diverse populations present a wide range of clinical scenarios, from acute medical concerns to complex chronic conditions, allowing you to refine telemetry monitoring, symptom assessment, and rapid response skills. The region provides convenient access to cultural events, renowned dining, and scenic outdoor activities, creating a balanced rhythm between demanding shifts and restorative downtime. For travel nurses seeking broader experience, this assignment also opens the door to placements in other locations across the United States, enabling you to experience different healthcare settings, patient demographics, and care delivery models while expanding your professional network. You’ll have opportunities to immerse yourself in new communities, learn from seasoned colleagues, and bring back enhanced expertise to every assignment. Whether you’re drawn to urban wells of knowledge or quieter suburban campuses, the flexibility to rotate through diverse settings enriches your nursing toolkit and elevates your confidence as a telemetry-focused RN.
In this Med Surg Tele role, your key responsibilities center on delivering high-quality inpatient care with a telemetric lens. You will perform comprehensive nursing assessments, monitor cardiac rhythms, interpret telemetry data, and promptly escalate changes in patient status. You’ll administer medications and IV therapies with precision, implement care plans, and collaborate closely with physicians, case managers, pharmacists, physical and occupational therapists, and social workers to coordinate discharge planning. Education will be central—teaching patients and families about disease processes, treatment options, medication management, and warning signs that require follow-up care. You’ll document thoroughly in electronic medical records, uphold safety and infection control standards, and contribute to quality improvement initiatives that enhance patient outcomes. The role also offers professional growth opportunities within the Med Surg Tele specialty, including exposure to advanced telemetry protocols, care coordination for medically complex patients, and mentorship from experienced nursing leaders. In addition to clinical duties, you’ll benefit from competitive compensation and a comprehensive benefits package. We offer a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease transition, plus contract extension opportunities for nurses who demonstrate reliability, initiative, and teamwork.

A dedicated service team will stand by 24/7 to support you during every placement, from onboarding to on-site integration and ongoing travel needs.
Our company is built on a foundation of empowerment, with a clear commitment to your career advancement and a supportive, inclusive work environment. You’ll join a culture that values continuous learning, clinical excellence, and mentorship, where seasoned clinicians guide you in honing telemetry accuracy, rapid assessment, and evidence-based interventions.
