Description

Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Nurse in Medical-Surgical (Med-Surg) care on a travel assignment in Hawaii, Hilo. This role invites you to deliver compassionate, evidence-based nursing to adult and geriatric patients across diverse clinical scenarios, from acute post-operative recovery to complex medical conditions. In Hawaii, you’ll not only care for patients but also immerse yourself in a culture that honors aloha, family, and community. The island’s natural beauty—from lush rainforests to pristine shoreline—offers a backdrop that inspires resilience and balance, turning every shift into a meaningful mission. As you stand at the crossroads of expert clinical practice and personal growth, you’ll discover how your knowledge, empathy, and leadership can elevate care outcomes while you experience the rich traditions, cuisine, and welcoming spirit of Hawaii. This assignment is designed to help you thrive professionally while embracing a region that many describe as a life-changing place to work and relax in equal measure. Whether you’ve long dreamed of island living or simply want to expand your bedside horizons, Med-Surg nursing in Hilo presents a compelling opportunity to impact patients and communities in a setting that feels like a vacation with purpose. Location Benefits: - Work in Hilo, a vibrant coastal city on the windward side of the Big Island, where warm trade winds, a thriving local culture, and a strong sense of community set the tone for everyday life. Expect engaging patient populations, opportunities to collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, and a healthcare environment that values thoughtful, patient-centered care. - Benefit from the unique experiences Hawaii offers—accessible outdoor adventures, rich cultural events, and a balance between professional rigor and personal well-being. The island setting supports restorative breaks after demanding shifts, helping you maintain stamina and compassion on the front lines of care. - For those who seek broader horizons, this program offers the possibility to work across various locations in the United States through a supported travel portfolio. You’ll receive guidance, logistics assistance, and a network of colleagues to ensure smooth transitions as you explore diverse clinical landscapes while maintaining your specialized Med-Surg skill set. - Our dedicated support team is available 24/7 to assist with travel logistics, housing, orientation, and any clinical or practical needs that arise, so you can focus on delivering excellent patient care with confidence. Role Specifics and Benefits: - Role overview: As a Med-Surg RN, you’ll assess, plan, implement, and evaluate care for adult medical and postoperative patients, including pre- and post-operative monitoring, IV therapy, wound care, medication administration, and timely escalation when patient status changes. You’ll collaborate with physicians, therapists, and case managers to optimize discharge planning and transition to home or a lower-acuity setting. - Key responsibilities: performing thorough patient assessments, interpreting clinical data, initiating interventions, ensuring accurate documentation in electronic health records, coordinating with families, and advocating for patient safety across complex care trajectories. You’ll contribute to care plans, participate in rounds, and uphold rigorous infection prevention and safety standards in a fast-paced Med-Surg environment. - Professional growth: this assignment emphasizes ongoing development within Med-Surg, with opportunities to enhance critical thinking, refine clinical judgment, pursue certifications, and expand your scope of practice. You’ll gain exposure to a broad spectrum of medical conditions, post-operative pathways, and care coordination strategies that strengthen your resume for future leadership or specialty pursuits. - Competitive benefits: in addition to competitive weekly pay (approximately $1,778-$1,896, subject to assignment specifics), the program includes a sign-on or completion bonus, housing assistance or stipend, and extension opportunities to continue your valuable contributions beyond the initial term. Flexible scheduling and potential for additional shifts support a sustainable pace that honors both patient needs and your well-being. - Housing and relocation: we provide housing assistance to ease transition and ensure comfortable rest spaces, along with resources to help you acclimate to island life and clinical workflows. If you already have housing in mind, you’ll have options that maximize cost efficiency and convenience. - 24/7 support: travel assignments come with continuous support from a dedicated team, ready to help with onboarding, credentialing, IT access, payroll, and any on-site clinical questions. You’ll never navigate challenges alone; a reliable network stands ready to assist around the clock. - Extension opportunities: proven performance and a positive fit with the team can lead to contract extensions, offering continuity, increased familiarity with patient populations, and the chance to deepen your impact within the organization. Company Values: Our organization is built on empowering clinicians to grow at every stage of their careers. We prioritize a supportive, inclusive work environment where learning is continuous, patient outcomes are prioritized, and teamwork is celebrated. You’ll find mentorship, constructive feedback, and opportunities to advance into leadership roles or expand into adjacent specialties as you gain experience.
