Mid Level
Step into the fast-paced world of emergency care as a Travel Registered Nurse specializing in ER, stationed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and let your clinical expertise illuminate the lives of patients when every second counts. This is your opportunity to bring calm leadership to chaotic moments, to apply advanced triage skills, and to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams in high-acuity environments. Imagine delivering rapid assessments, administering life-saving interventions, and guiding families with empathy, all while advancing your specialty through diverse clinical settings. Beyond the bedside, you’ll broaden your perspective by experiencing the rich tapestry of Pennsylvania—from the iconic skyline and historic neighborhoods of Philadelphia to the serene beauty of the Pennsylvania Dutch countryside, the thrilling outdoors of the Poconos, and the family-friendly charm of Hershey and its world-renowned attractions. Each downtime moment becomes a chance to recharge, reflect, and plan your next impactful shift.
Location Benefits: Working in Philadelphia places you at the heart of one of America’s most dynamic medical landscapes. You’ll support urban trauma and emergency departments that serve diverse communities, gaining exposure to a wide spectrum of presentations, from high-volume trauma cases to time-sensitive peds emergencies. The city’s blend of culture, cuisine, and history enhances every living experience, while nearby rural pockets and resort areas offer restorative escapes within a short drive. For travel nurses, the promise extends beyond Pennsylvania: opportunities to rotate through various locations across the U.S. give you access to different hospital cultures, patient populations, and clinical protocols, all while maintaining a consistent standard of support and pay. Travel paths can reveal renowned academic centers, community hospitals, and satellite EDs, each shaping your skill set and expanding your professional network. And because you’ll be part of a nationwide travel program, you’ll benefit from a coordinated housing plan, streamlined onboarding, and a familiar, documented approach to licensure and compliance, so you can focus on what you do best—delivering exceptional patient care.
Role Specifics and Benefits: As the ER RN on this travel assignment, you’ll manage a wide range of urgent emergencies, from rapid patient assessments and stabilization to meticulous documentation and collaboration with physicians, respiratory therapists, and support staff. Your responsibilities will include triage, airway management, medication administration, performing invasive procedures as appropriate, and coordinating care plans across units to ensure patient safety and throughput. This role is designed to elevate your professional growth within emergency nursing, offering opportunities to lead handoffs, mentor junior staff, and refine critical thinking under pressure. You’ll enjoy competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $2,094 to $2,256, paired with guaranteed 36 hours per week. The position supports a flexible duration of weeks, with potential extensions based on unit needs and your demonstrated performance. A signing bonus is available, along with housing assistance to minimize relocation barriers. We also provide extension opportunities so you can continue building your ER expertise in different environments. Comprehensive support is a cornerstone of the program, including 24/7 assistance from a dedicated travel team while you’re on assignment. You’ll receive ongoing access to clinical resources, evidence-based practice updates, and mentorship to help you stay at the forefront of emergency nursing.
Company Values: Our partner organization is committed to empowering your career trajectory with a culture that prioritizes your growth, well-being, and professional autonomy. Expect a supportive, collaborative environment where you can pursue career advancement through specialty certifications, targeted trainings, and leadership development pathways. We believe in recognizing the expertise you bring and investing in your ongoing education, with resources that help you expand your ER skill set, navigate complex clinical scenarios, and assume roles that align with your aspirations.
