Job Description Job Description Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Nurse specializing in Med Surg in Rochester, New York, where every shift is a chance to make a meaningful impact on patients, families, and your own professional growth. This travel-ready assignment starts on 03/02/2026 and unfolds across several weeks, with the opportunity to extend as you demonstrate expertise, compassion, and leadership on the floor. Picture yourself delivering high-quality medical-surgical care in a city that blends historic charm with modern healthcare excellence, all while gaining exposure to diverse patient populations that sharpen your clinical judgment and confidence. Beyond the hospital walls, New York’s Upstate landscapes invite you to explore the beauty of the state—vibrant fall colors along the Hudson, the glacial beauty of the Finger Lakes, lakefront strolls along Lake Ontario, and cultural treasures that enrich your time off. Rochester sits at the crossroads of innovation and community, offering a supportive environment where your voice helps shape patient outcomes and nursing practice. Location Benefits: Working in Rochester places you in a hub of skilled nursing teams, advanced practice collaborations, and opportunities for ongoing professional development. You’ll benefit from facility support, mentorship from seasoned Med Surg nurses, and access to state-of-the-art resources that empower you to deliver evidence-based care with efficiency and empathy. The region’s affordable cost of living, robust parks system, and proximity to world-class museums, theaters, and dining create a balanced lifestyle that supports your well-being as you care for others. For those seeking variety, we offer the option to place you across multiple locations in the U.S., expanding your clinical horizons, enhancing adaptability, and enriching your portfolio with experiences across different patient populations and settings. In Rochester, you’ll enjoy the blend of a thriving medical community with the charm of a welcoming city, where history meets modern amenities, perfect for weekend explorations in the Finger Lakes wine country, scenic drives along the lakefront, or recentering in lush green spaces after demanding shifts. Role Specifics and Benefits: In this Med Surg RN role, you’ll assess and monitor patients with varied medical diagnoses, administer medications and treatments within scope, participate in care planning, and coordinate with physicians, therapists, and interdisciplinary teams to ensure seamless, patient-centered care. You’ll lead with critical thinking on post-operative recoveries, acute medical presentations, and complex comorbidity management, while documenting accurately and communicating clearly with families and team members. The position offers pathways for professional growth—pursue certifications, take on preceptorships, or assume leadership responsibilities on the floor as you gain confidence with high-acuity Med Surg cases. Competitive benefits include a signing bonus, housing assistance, and clear extension opportunities to keep your career momentum going. You’ll receive comprehensive support, including 24/7 assistance from our travel team as you navigate assignments, shifts, housing, and onboarding. The weekly pay ranges from $1,981 to $2,089, reflecting your expert contributions and the intensity of Med Surg care you provide. While the stated weekly pay is indicative, the program offers flexible scheduling with assignments that begin on 03/02/2026 and span multiple weeks, with the possibility of extensions based on performance and facility needs. Note that guaranteed hours are listed as 0.0, meaning scheduling is contingent on unit demand, but our team works diligently to secure appropriate hours and ongoing opportunities aligned with your preferences. Company Values: Our company is dedicated to empowering nursing professionals, fostering a culture of continuous learning, and supporting career advancement within a collaborative, compassionate environment. We invest in your growth—offering mentorship, access to specialty training, and a route to leadership roles—so you can expand your clinical repertoire while maintaining work-life balance. You’ll be part of a community that prioritizes patient dignity, safety, and exceptional care, with a transparent pathway for feedback, recognition, and professional development. Our commitment to 24/7 support underscores a steadfast promise: you are never alone on your journey, and help is always a call away when you’re traveling or adjusting to new settings. Call to Action: If you’re a dedicated Med Surg nurse ready to impact patient outcomes across diverse clinical environments, we want to hear from you.
