Embark on a transformative Travel Registered Nurse journey in PACU, set in the historic and scenic Plymouth, Massachusetts. This specialty places you at the core of perioperative care, guiding patients from the wake of anesthesia to stable recovery, while delivering comfort, safety, and reassurance at every step. As you deliver expert post-anesthesia care, you’ll help patients regain stability, manage pain, and prepare for discharge with confidence. This assignment starts on 01/12/2026 and unfolds over a multi-week contract designed to maximize your clinical impact and professional growth. Beyond the immediate responsibilities, you’ll have the chance to explore the beauty and culture of Massachusetts—from Plymouth’s waterfront charm and rich colonial heritage to the picturesque beaches and rolling coastal landscapes that make the Bay State a memorable backdrop for your nursing journey.

Plymouth offers a compelling blend of coastal living and convenient access to broader New England adventures. Working here means enjoying a community with historic landmarks, waterfront parks, seafood accents, and easy day trips to Cape Cod, Boston’s cultural venues, and inland forested trails. The location also opens doors to opportunities across the U.S. hospitals and facilities that rely on seasoned PACU RNs to support fast-paced surgical services. You’ll benefit from a supportive local team while savoring the unique experiences of the Massachusetts coast, including seasonal events, seasonal seafood markets, and a relaxed coastal rhythm when you’re off duty. This assignment is designed to be flexible within a nationwide PACU network, offering you the advantages of diverse patient populations, varied surgical specialties, and the chance to deepen your technical proficiency in post-anesthesia recovery.

In this PACU RN role, you’ll deliver high-quality, patient-centered care in a fast-paced surgical setting. Your key responsibilities will include close monitoring of respiratory and cardiovascular status, prompt assessment of pain and sedation needs, hemodynamic surveillance, airway management as needed, and rapid identification and management of post-anesthesia complications. You’ll collaborate with anesthesia providers, surgeons, and nursing staff to optimize recovery trajectories, ensure safe transfers to the floor or discharge, and document care with precision. The position provides ample room for professional growth—whether honing pain management strategies, refining PACU-specific protocols, or preparing for leadership pathways within perioperative services. You’ll be part of a team that values evidence-based practice, patient advocacy, and continuous improvement, with opportunities to pursue certifications, specialty training, and cross-coverage across PACU units as needed.

This opportunity includes a competitive compensation package designed to recognize your expertise. Weekly pay ranges from $2,628 to $2,669, reflecting the demanding nature and critical importance of the PACU role. The program also offers comprehensive support, including housing assistance to help you settle quickly and comfortably, plus potential sign-on bonuses and extension opportunities that empower you to plan your career path with confidence. You’ll have access to robust benefits and resources aimed at maintaining work-life balance, mental well-being, and professional satisfaction. The company provides 24/7 support for traveling nurses, ensuring you’re never alone on assignment—whether you’re coordinating travel logistics, navigating housing needs, or addressing clinical questions that arise on shift. This continuous support is a hallmark of the organization, designed to keep you focused on delivering exceptional patient care.

Expect opportunities for ongoing education, skill refinement, leadership development, and the chance to rotate through different PACU settings to broaden your clinical perspective. The culture emphasizes respect, accountability, open communication, and a shared commitment to high standards of perioperative care, all while supporting your personal well-being and professional aspirations.
