This travel assignment is designed for a professional who thrives on constant learning, adaptable scheduling, and the satisfaction that comes from improving outcomes in real-time. Your impact will ripple through every patient encounter, every teamwork-driven solution, and every carefully prepped instrument tray that helps a surgeon perform at their best. Envision yourself elevating your technical repertoire while making meaningful connections with a wide array of operating room teams across different facilities, all while enjoying the unique experiences that come with working in Plattsburgh and beyond.
New York’s beauty extends beyond the hospital walls, and separately, you’ll have the chance to appreciate the state’s diverse landscapes and cultural offerings. From the tranquil shores of Lake Champlain to the pristine trails of the Adirondack Mountains, Plattsburgh sits amid outdoor adventures and vibrant community life. The region’s parks, historic landmarks, and seasonal events provide refreshing balance to the intensity of the OR.

The arrangement offers competitive pay with the potential for add-ons, flexible rotation patterns, and the chance to extend into additional assignments that align with your goals. You’ll also benefit from housing assistance designed to ease the transition, as well as a structured support system that prioritizes your well-being and work-life balance even as you navigate different facilities and regions.
In this role, your core responsibilities center on safeguarding patient safety and facilitating efficient, successful procedures. You’ll prepare and organize sterile instrument trays, assist with instrument counts, ensure all equipment is functional, and support the surgical team before, during, and after procedures. Your technical proficiency will enable you to anticipate needs, troubleshoot equipment issues, and maintain sterile technique under the pressures of a bustling OR. You’ll collaborate with surgeons and nurses to coordinate workflow, adapt to varying case types, and participate in post-operative documentation and debriefs. The opportunity for professional growth is substantial: engage in cross-training with different surgical subspecialties, refine your speed and accuracy under time constraints, and develop leadership skills as you mentor junior staff and orient new travelers. The role provides a clear path to broaden your scope of practice, deepen your understanding of perioperative care, and elevate your confidence in high-stakes settings.
Benefits accompany your clinical contributions. In addition to a competitive weekly pay range of $1,916 to $2,026, you’ll access housing assistance to ease relocation logistics and reduce total housing costs. There is potential for performance-based bonuses and contract extensions, enabling you to plan longer tenures where mutual fit and enthusiasm align.
