Job Description Job Description Embark on a high-impact ICU nursing journey as a Registered Nurse in Fortuna, California, where your clinical expertise will directly influence outcomes for critically ill patients and elevate the standard of care across a dynamic, collaborative team. This weeks?long assignment begins March 9, 2026, inviting you to deepen ventilator management, hemodynamic monitoring, and rapid-response decision making within a culture built on precision, compassion, and continuous learning. You’ll have the chance to mentor others, refine your own practice, and demonstrate leadership in the fast-paced environment of a thriving ICU. Imagine delivering expert care, guiding families through difficult moments, and shaping a trajectory of recovery that resonates beyond each shift. And when you’re away from the hospital, California’s beauty surrounds you—majestic redwoods, rugged coastline, sunlit valleys, and a climate that invites outdoor exploration after a meaningful day of care. California’s allure goes beyond the walls of the ICU. Fortuna sits amid the Redwood Coast, where towering trees frame a close-knit community and the Pacific whispers along pristine beaches. The state offers a tapestry of experiences—from state parks and scenic byways to farmers markets and world-class cuisine. Whether you unwind on a coastal hike, drive through the tall trees of old-growth forests, or take a short weekend trip to nearby towns, your assignment can be complemented by the chance to explore the diverse beauty of this remarkable place. For clinicians who embrace travel and new environments, this role also paves the way to work in varied settings across the United States, enriching your expertise while you grow your professional network. Role specifics and benefits: - Key responsibilities: Provide direct, evidence-based care to ICU patients, including continuous monitoring of vital signs and laboratory data, titration of vasoactive medications, and management of advanced support modalities such as invasive lines and ventilators. Conduct frequent patient assessments, update care plans, and participate actively in interdisciplinary rounds with intensivists, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, and social work. Initiate timely interventions during emergencies, implement sepsis protocols, coordinate rapid response and code events, and ensure seamless transitions of care from the ICU to step-down units or discharge. Maintain rigorous documentation, uphold infection control standards, and engage in family-centered communication to support informed decision-making. Contribute to quality improvement initiatives and share knowledge with peers to elevate overall unit performance. - Growth opportunities: This role is structured to foster clinical mastery within critical care, with access to CCRN preparation, cross-training with other ICU specialties, and potential pathways toward leadership or clinical educator responsibilities. You’ll have opportunities to broaden your scope, take on mentorship responsibilities, and participate in ongoing education that strengthens competencies across the critical care spectrum. - Benefits and support: Competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $2,057–$2,166, plus a sign?on or completion bonus where available, housing assistance to ease relocation, and options to extend your assignment for additional weeks or renewals. We provide comprehensive support including onboarding, credentialing guidance, and 24/7 assistance as you travel with the company. You’ll experience a robust orientation and access to a dedicated travel support team that remains available day and night to address scheduling, housing, or clinical questions. Although the listed hours are not guaranteed, your final package and schedule will be confirmed during the hiring process to ensure clarity and stability as you plan ahead. - Professional ecosystem: Work within a culture that emphasizes teamwork, safety, and evidence-based practice. Expect collaborative problem-solving, shared learning opportunities, and an environment where your insights contribute to patient outcomes, staff development, and program innovations. Company values: Our organization is built on empowering staff to advance their careers while maintaining a compassionate, inclusive work culture.
