Wellstar Kennestone Regional Medical Center
Mid Level
Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Acute Care in Marietta, Georgia. This role places you at the center of high-stakes patient care where your clinical expertise, compassionate leadership, and teamwork drive meaningful outcomes. You’ll deliver skilled bedside nursing on a fast-paced, multidisciplinary acute care unit, guiding patients and families through complex clinical journeys with clarity and empathy. Your practice will be shaped by evidence-based care, rapid assessment, accurate documentation, and collaboration with physicians, therapists, and support staff to optimize recovery and safety. In addition to the immediate impact you’ll have on individual lives, this opportunity invites you to envision a broader influence—honing your expertise in a thriving healthcare market while enjoying the natural and cultural beauty of Georgia. Nestled in the Atlanta metropolitan area, Marietta offers a blend of small-town charm and convenient access to urban amenities, excellent schools, and a thriving food and arts scene. Georgia’s landscapes—from the rolling hills of the north to historic coastlines and expansive parks—offer weekends of exploration and respite after rewarding shifts. And for the adventurous, the chance to work across different locations in the United States can expand your clinical perspective, expose you to diverse patient populations, and accelerate your professional growth.
Location benefits: Working in Marietta means joining a region known for strong hospital networks, collaborative care cultures, and opportunities to make an immediate impact on patient outcomes in a community-oriented setting. You’ll enjoy access to advanced facilities, state-of-the-art technology, and robust supporting teams that value patient-centered care. The area provides welcoming neighborhoods, excellent schooling options, and abundant recreational choices—from greenways and hiking trails to family-friendly events and cultural experiences—creating a healthy balance between demanding shifts and personal time. In addition, the program allows for assignments in other locations across the U.S., broadening your exposure to varied acute care practices and hospital cultures. This flexibility empowers you to refine your clinical judgment, master a wide range of cases, and build a diverse portfolio that enhances career resilience and advancement. Whether you prefer a metro hospital with high-acuity cases or a regional center with tight-knit teams, your competencies will be sharpened while you experience the distinctive flavors of different communities across the country.
Role specifics and benefits: As an Acute Care Registered Nurse, you’ll provide comprehensive, compassionate care for patients with a broad spectrum of conditions—from post-operative recovery and cardiac monitoring to respiratory support and routine stabilization. You’ll perform thorough assessments, interpret evolving vitals and telemetry data, administer medications safely, manage ventricular devices and infusion therapies, and respond rapidly to changes in patient status. You’ll lead care planning discussions with multidisciplinary teams, educate patients and families about diagnosis, treatment, and discharge plans, and document care with precision in electronic health records. Professional growth is woven into the role through ongoing mentorship, evidence-based practice, opportunities to cross-train in related units, and exposure to diverse case mixes that strengthen critical thinking and clinical leadership.
This opportunity includes competitive benefits designed to support you throughout your assignment. A sign-on or completion bonus may be available, and housing assistance can alleviate relocation costs and help you settle into the Marietta area with ease. Flexible extension options are offered so you can continue advancing in a setting you know and trust, or explore a new clinical environment within the same program. You’ll also receive travel support and access to a dedicated 24/7 support team that stands ready to assist you on the road, during transitions between assignments, and whenever you need guidance or troubleshooting. Weekly pay ranges from $1,548 to $1,679, reflecting the value of your expertise and the demand for skilled acute care nursing. Note that hours are not guaranteed; this assignment operates with a flexible schedule designed around patient needs and unit demand, with an expected but non-guaranteed number of hours each week. The contract begins on 01/05/2026 and runs for a period defined by weeks, giving you the freedom to pace your career progression while maintaining a robust professional footprint.
