Mid Level
Step into the pivotal role of a Registered Nurse in PACU for a travel assignment anchored in Morrisville, Vermont, with a start date of 12/29/2025 for a duration of several weeks. This is your moment to apply expert post-anesthesia care in a setting that values precision, compassion, and collaboration, guiding patients safely from the operating room through the earliest stages of recovery. In Vermont, where the Green Mountains meet pristine lakes and quaint towns, your work will be shaped by scenery that inspires and rejuvenates—think vibrant fall foliage, outdoor adventures in the foothills, and welcoming communities that feel like home. Picture evenings spent savoring local cheese, farm-to-table dinners, and quiet moments by lake shores after a day of meaningful clinical impact.

Location benefits extend beyond Morrisville’s charming, close-knit atmosphere. Morrisville offers a serene, community-focused environment with easy access to outdoor recreation—from hiking along scenic trails in the Green Mountains to winter sports at nearby resorts. You’ll enjoy safe neighborhoods, strong local healthcare partnerships, and the appeal of Vermont’s slower pace paired with meaningful professional opportunities. For those who crave variety, this program also presents the chance to work in various locations across the U.S., enriching your clinical perspective, expanding your professional network, and exposing you to diverse hospital protocols, patient populations, and teamwork dynamics. The flexibility to rotate through different facilities can accelerate your growth as a PACU clinician while keeping your career fresh and engaging.

Role specifics and benefits: As a PACU RN on this assignment, your core responsibilities will center on delivering high-quality, patient-centered post-anesthesia care. You’ll monitor vital signs, airway status, and pain control, promptly recognizing and addressing post-op complications or airway challenges, and ensuring safe, timely recovery room transitions. You’ll manage IVs, medications, and infusion therapies according to evolving protocols, coordinate closely with anesthesia and surgical teams, and participate in robust handoffs to PACU and postoperative units. Documentation will be precise and timely, supporting continuity of care and patient education for families. You’ll assess discharge criteria, promote mobility and respiratory exercises, and provide reassurance and education to patients and caregivers as they transition home or to a lower level of care. Professional growth opportunities abound as you collaborate with seasoned PACU teams, participate in quality improvement initiatives, and pursue ongoing certifications or specialty training relevant to perioperative care. You’ll be supported to expand skills in airway management, pain strategies, and rapid response coordination, positioning you for leadership roles within PACU teams.

Compelling benefits accompany your clinical impact. You’ll earn a competitive weekly pay range of $2,180-$2,281, with guaranteed hours of 40 per week, ensuring predictable income and scheduling stability. A comprehensive package includes housing assistance to ease relocation or temporary housing needs, and potential extension opportunities that allow you to continue growing with the same supportive team if your assignment ends with a positive fit. In addition, a team-oriented bonus structure acknowledges your contributions and performance, while 24/7 support from travel coordinators and clinical supervisors ensures you’re never navigating a shift or unfamiliar facility alone. The combination of financial stability, practical relocation support, and ongoing professional development creates a pathway where your clinical expertise is valued and advanced.
