Job Description:

Job Description Job Description Embark on a dynamic travel nursing journey as a Registered Nurse in the Cath Lab in Rochester, New York, where every heartbeat you help restore becomes a note in a larger symphony of care. This role places you at the forefront of interventional cardiology, delivering expert nursing support through diagnostic angiography, PCI and other complex interventions. You’ll coordinate with physicians, technologists, and perioperative teams to prepare patients, maintain sterile technique, monitor hemodynamics, assist with equipment management, and safeguard patient comfort and safety from pre-procedure through recovery. In this fast-paced environment, your clinical acumen, compassion, and precise clinical execution will directly influence outcomes, shorten recovery, and strengthen the trust patients place in the care team. This assignment is more than a job—it’s a chance to deepen cath lab expertise, expand professional reach, and contribute meaningfully to lives being saved and hearts being cared for. New York is a state of possibility, history, and natural beauty, and Rochester is your starting point for a career that blends professional intensity with cultural enrichment. In Rochester, you’ll join a vibrant medical community that values innovation and teamwork, while enjoying a city that offers museums, parks, dining, and a thriving craft beverage scene. And when you want to step outside hospital walls, the Finger Lakes region invites wine trails, lakeside activities, and spectacular sunsets. The Adirondacks are a scenic drive away for a weekend escape, and Niagara Falls is within reach for a day trip that pairs wonder with natural power. If you crave variety, there is also the opportunity to work at partner facilities across the U.S., expanding your clinical exposure and giving you the chance to experience a spectrum of care settings—from academic medical centers to community hospitals—while building a national network of colleagues and mentors. Rochester’s blend of affordable living, accessible transportation, and a welcoming community makes it a thoughtful, satisfying place to advance your nursing career while discovering new corners of the country. Location benefits are tangible: you’ll be embedded in a well-established cardiology program with access to cutting-edge cath lab technology and a collaborative culture that supports evidence-based practice. You’ll enjoy professional camaraderie with a multidisciplinary team dedicated to patient-centered outcomes, opportunities for professional growth, and a work environment that values your voice. If you’re drawn to innovation, you’ll find ongoing education and exposure to complex cases that sharpen your clinical judgment and expand your cath lab repertoire. For traveling nurses who love experiential learning, the chance to rotate to different facilities within a trusted network means you’ll develop adaptability, refine communication across diverse teams, and bring best practices from one setting to another. And Rochester’s quality of life—seasonal activities, strong school systems, and a generous rhythm of urban and outdoor experiences—supports sustainable, long-term career vitality.

Assist with patient preparation, procedural setup, sterile technique, and equipment handling.

Support radiologic safety, infection prevention, and quality improvement initiatives. Educate patients and families about post-procedure care, activity restrictions, and follow-up steps. Participate in debriefings and contribute to continuous performance improvement within the cath lab team. - Growth and development: Benefit from structured mentorship and opportunities to deepen cath lab expertise, including exposure to electrophysiology, complex PCI, and peripheral interventions. Access ongoing education and training to pursue additional certifications and specialty credentials aligned with your career goals. - Benefits: Competitive weekly pay in the range of $2,491–$2,689, with a bonus structure designed to acknowledge performance and commitment.

You’ll also receive dedicated, 24/7 support from our travel team to assist with any needs that arise while you’re on assignment, from housing adjustments to credentialing and onboarding, so you’re never alone on the road. - Start date and duration: Start on 03/16/2026 for a weeks-long assignment, with potential extensions based on facility needs and your preferences. Hours and scheduling are flexible within staffing requirements, and you’ll be supported throughout the process by a responsive national network of clinical leaders and travel specialists. - Location and mobility: While Rochester anchors this opportunity, your assignment may include placements at partner sites across the United States, offering exposure to diverse patient populations, hospital cultures, and operational practices that broaden your professional foot-print and accelerate growth in interventional nursing.
