Albany, OR
Contracted
Samaritan Albany General Hospital
Mid Level
Embark on a transformative journey as an ICU Registered Nurse in Albany, Oregon, where your clinical expertise will directly influence patient outcomes in one of the Pacific Northwest’s most welcoming communities. In this fast-paced specialty, every shift offers an opportunity to apply advanced critical care skills, coordinate with multidisciplinary teams, and guide families through complex care decisions. Your hands will support patients on the edge of life, while your judgment and compassion help restore hope. Picture yourself delivering precise hemodynamic management, ventilator coordination, and meticulous protocol adherence in a setting that emphasizes safety, innovation, and continuous learning. In this state famed for its natural beauty, you’ll also discover the joy of balancing demanding clinical work with access to breathtaking landscapes—lush valleys, misty forests, and volcanic vistas—all within reach during time off. Oregon’s sunlit mornings and tranquil evenings provide a backdrop for renewal, whether you’re exploring the Willamette Valley’s wine country, wandering the nearby coast, or hiking among the Cascade peaks. This is more than a job—it's a chance to make a meaningful impact while embracing a region renowned for its outdoors, culture, and community spirit.
Albany sits in the heart of Oregon’s Willamette Valley, a region celebrated for its scenic rivers, family-friendly neighborhoods, and a thriving local culture. Working here means a blend of thoughtful, accessible city life and the serenity of nature, with convenient access to larger hubs like Salem and Eugene, as well as quick routes to Portland’s urban offerings. You’ll enjoy a community that values collaboration, patient-centered care, and professional development, alongside a pace that allows you to focus on excellence in critical care without sacrificing work-life balance. For fun outside the hospital, you can explore the nearby riverfront, discover local farms, and savor community events that celebrate the area’s agricultural roots and artistic energy. And if you’re drawn to more alpine scenery or coastal adventures, Oregon makes it easy to plan weekend explorations, from craggy coastlines to pine-clad trails and snow-capped peaks.
Role specifics and benefits are designed to support your growth and well-being. As an ICU RN, you’ll oversee critical care patients with complex needs, coordinate with physicians, monitor advanced life-support technologies, manage vasoactive meds, and collaborate on evidence-based protocols that optimize outcomes. You’ll have opportunities to expand expertise in areas such as ventilator weaning, sepsis management, nocturnal rounds, and rapid response coordination. The assignment emphasizes professional development, with access to continuing education, mentorship from seasoned ICU colleagues, and a pathway for credential advancement. To enhance your experience, we offer competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $2,184–$2,244, a guaranteed minimum of 36 hours per week, and the chance to extend your contract to align with your goals and the facility’s needs. A sign-on bonus is available, acknowledging the value you bring to the ICU team, along with comprehensive housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing needs. We also provide extension opportunities, allowing you to lengthen your stay, deepen your integration into the unit, and build lasting professional relationships. Throughout your travels, you’ll have round-the-clock support from our dedicated team. Our 24/7 traveler assistance ensures you have help whenever you need it—whether it’s credentialing, shift changes, or unexpected scheduling questions—so you can focus on patient care with confidence.
Company values are reflected in a steadfast commitment to empowering staff and fostering a culture of growth, inclusion, and resilience. We believe every nurse has a unique story and a vital role in shaping high-quality patient outcomes. The organization prioritizes mentorship, ongoing skill development, and internal mobility, creating a trajectory for career advancement that aligns with your ambitions. You’ll join a supportive environment that values autonomy, teamwork, and transparent communication, where leaders listen and nurses are encouraged to lead improvements in care processes. The philosophy is simple: when you thrive, patients benefit, teams strengthen, and the broader healthcare community advances together. If you’re seeking a partner that recognizes your expertise and invests in your professional journey, you’ll find it here.
