Embark on a rewarding journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Med Surg in beautiful Hilo, Hawaii. This week-to-week travel nursing opportunity begins on 02/23/2026 and offers an immersive, impact-driven experience in a fast-paced acute-care setting. You’ll deliver compassionate, evidence-based care to diverse patient populations, collaborating with skilled teams to stabilize, educate, and discharge patients with clarity and confidence. Your expertise will help individuals regain strength, navigate recovery, and return home with dignity. Picture yourself making a difference each shift while you explore the rich culture and stunning landscapes of Hawaii. And beyond Hilo, you’ll have the chance to work in various locations across the U.S., expanding your professional horizons while bringing your Med Surg strengths to new teams and communities.
Location Benefits: Hilo sits on the lush windward coast of the Big Island, where turquoise seas meet black lava fields and tropical rainforests. Here you’ll wake to ocean sunsets, gentle trade winds, and island rhythms that invite both resilience and balance. The community offers authentic Hawaiian culture, locally grown cuisine, and opportunities to explore tropical gardens, waterfalls, and volcanic landscapes in your downtime. Working in Hawaii also means access to vibrant coastal activities, outdoor adventures, and a year-round climate that makes it easy to recharge between shifts. For nurses who crave variety, this role also presents the possibility to rotate to other U.S. locations through the program, providing diverse patient populations, new clinical challenges, and the chance to broaden your professional network while continuing to deliver high-quality care.
Role Specifics and Benefits: As an RN Med Surg, you’ll assess and monitor patients with a range of medical-surgical conditions, interpret clinical data, administer medications, manage IV therapies, and perform standard procedures with precision. You’ll collaborate with physicians, case managers, and ancillary staff to develop and implement individualized care plans, aiming for smooth, timely recoveries and safe discharges. You’ll have opportunities for professional growth through evidence-based practice, quality improvement initiatives, and mentorship from experienced Med Surg teams. The package emphasizes competitive compensation, including a weekly pay range of 1,799 to 1,892, with a clear path for extension opportunities if you wish to continue the assignment. The program also offers a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease relocation and integration into island life. You’ll benefit from comprehensive support, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated team as you travel, ensuring you’re never navigating challenges alone. Of note, hours are not guaranteed and may vary by assignment needs; the stated pay ranges are estimates and will be confirmed during the hiring process, with guaranteed hours discussed in detail at onboarding.
Company Values: Our organization is built on empowering frontline staff and fostering a culture of growth, respect, and collaboration. We’re committed to your professional advancement, providing ongoing education, mentorship, and opportunities to take on expanded responsibilities within Med Surg. You’ll enter a supportive environment where teamwork is celebrated, feedback is encouraged, and patient-centered care remains the top priority. By prioritizing work-life balance, wellness resources, and a transparent path to career progression, we aim to help you thrive both personally and professionally.
