This role invites you to deliver high-quality medical-surgical and telemetry care to a diverse patient population, supporting acute needs with precision, empathy, and teamwork. Picture yourself making meaningful differences each day while the Pacific waves paint your backdrop and the warmth of aloha colors your experience. Beyond the clinical impact, you’ll have the chance to revel in Hawaii’s beauty—from the crystal-clear bays of Kealakekua to lush landscapes, vibrant sunsets, and a thriving local culture that invites exploration, outdoor adventure, and a balanced, fulfilling lifestyle.

You’ll be part of a community that values patient-centered care, with opportunities to collaborate across departments and to learn from seasoned clinicians in a supportive setting. The Big Island’s dramatic scenery—coastal views, volcanic landscapes, and access to world-class snorkeling and hiking—enhances your daily well-being and resilience. For clinicians who enjoy travel, there’s the potential to engage with locations across the U.S. through our network, expanding your clinical repertoire, cultural exposure, and professional connections.

Core responsibilities include continuous telemetry monitoring, timely assessment and documentation, IV therapy administration, wound care, medication administration, and collaboration with physicians, case managers, and ancillary teams to optimize patient outcomes. You’ll participate in discharge planning, patient and family education, and care coordination to promote smooth transitions from hospital to home or other care settings. The role emphasizes professional growth through exposure to diverse medical-surgical conditions, complex telemetry cases, and opportunities to refine critical thinking, leadership, and evidence-based practice. We recognize the value you bring and support your advancement with a comprehensive benefits package designed to attract and retain top nursing talent. Expect competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $2,245 to $2,360, along with a bonus option, housing assistance, and the potential for contract extensions to extend your impact and deepen your experience. You’ll receive continuous support from a dedicated team that provides 24/7 assistance while traveling with the company, ensuring you have resources and guidance at all hours. The assignment is set to start on 01/05/2026, with a framework that prioritizes flexible scheduling and professional development, so you can grow your clinical expertise while maintaining the work-life balance that Hawaii affords. Note that the stated hours and pay rates are estimates and may vary; final compensation packages and guaranteed hours will be confirmed during the hiring process. Each assignment also includes access to mentorship from seasoned clinicians and opportunities to participate in quality improvement initiatives, evidence-based practice projects, and professional development workshops.
