Mid Level
Step into a vital, life-changing role as a Registered Nurse in Psychiatric care, based in Brattleboro, Vermont, where your clinical expertise meets compassionate, person-centered support. This travel assignment invites you to influence recovery stories, help calm crises with evidence-based de-escalation, and partner with a multidisciplinary team to elevate patient outcomes. You’ll bring therapeutic communication, risk assessment, medication management, and recovery-oriented care to adults and diverse populations, while building your leadership skills in a dynamic, program-wide setting. Imagine the difference you can make day to day, guiding patients toward greater stability and hope, while expanding your professional horizon in a nationally connected travel program that values your contributions. And beyond the hospital walls, you’ll discover Vermont’s welcoming communities and the opportunity to experience a state famed for its natural beauty, artisanal culture, and enduring sense of well-being.
Vermont’s Brattleboro is a unique blend of small-town warmth and outdoor adventure. In your off hours you’ll be near the Green Mountains, the Connecticut River, and a tapestry of scenic trails, cafés, and cultural festivals. Explore seasonal foliage, pristine lakes, and charming markets that showcase local craftsmanship. The location offers a friendly community atmosphere, access to excellent amenities, and a pace that supports focused, patient-centered care. For those who crave variety, this assignment also provides the option to work in other locations across the United States, opening doors to different patient populations, hospital environments, and clinical challenges—while maintaining the security of guaranteed hours and a robust support system to keep you steady on the road.
As for the role itself, you’ll be responsible for assessing psychiatric needs, developing and implementing individualized care plans, administering medications, monitoring responses, and coordinating with psychiatrists, social workers, and therapists to optimize outcomes. You’ll engage in crisis intervention, de-escalation strategies, safety planning, and continuum-of-care discussions to reduce readmissions. You’ll document meticulously, track progress, and contribute to evidence-based protocols that reinforce recovery and resilience. The position offers significant opportunities for professional growth within psychiatric nursing: pursuing advanced certifications, participating in education programs, mentoring newer staff, and stepping into leadership or specialty roles as you gain experience. Competitive benefits include a performance-based bonus, comprehensive housing assistance, and the chance to extend your contract for continuity of care and career advancement. You’ll enjoy substantial support, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated company team as you travel, helping with housing, credentialing, orientation, and on-site needs, so you can focus on delivering high-quality patient care.
Our company is built on empowering staff, elevating professional development, and cultivating a supportive work environment where nurses feel valued and heard. We invest in your ongoing education, offer clear pathways for advancement, and foster a culture of teamwork and respect. You’ll join a network that prioritizes safety, wellness, and the balance between clinical excellence and personal growth, with resources that help you thrive in a travel nursing career while delivering compassionate care that makes a difference in communities you touch.
