Travel Registered Nurse ICU Job

Embark on an impactful ICU nursing journey in Sonora, California, where every shift puts you at the heart of high-stakes patient care and compassionate teamwork. As a Registered Nurse specializing in ICU, you’ll be entrusted with delivering expert critical care to patients in need, guiding families through difficult moments, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to drive outcomes that matter. This travel assignment commences on December 22, 2025, and runs for a sequence of weeks designed to challenge your clinical acumen, expand your leadership capabilities, and deepen your proficiency with advanced life-support therapies. You’ll join a community of dedicated professionals who celebrate your expertise, while you gain exposure to diverse case mixes across the ICU spectrum, sharpening your skills and advancing your career in a dynamic, supportive environment.

Located in the scenic foothills of the Sierra Nevada, Sonora offers the charm of a historic Gold Rush town with modern amenities, outdoor recreation, and a welcoming community. From wandering the gold-era streets to taking in breathtaking vistas, you’ll discover a lifestyle that refreshes you after demanding shifts. The surrounding landscapes—rolling hills, rivers, and access to nearby national parks—provide ample opportunities to recharge and reconnect with the things you love. Beyond Sonora, our program gives you access to assignments across the United States, enabling you to experience a spectrum of hospital cultures, patient populations, and clinical practices. This blend of locale-specific beauty and broad professional exposure means you can cultivate a robust resume while savoring the distinctive experiences each location offers. Expect housing options designed to simplify your transition, convenient commutes, and a balance that supports energy and resilience for your ICU responsibilities.

Role specifics and benefits are crafted to recognize your expertise and propel your growth. In this ICU RN position, you’ll lead and participate in the care of critically ill patients requiring advanced monitoring, ventilator management, vasopressor support, continuous renal replacement therapy when indicated, and rapid response to deterioration. You’ll engage in comprehensive patient assessments, manage complex drips and devices, interpret hemodynamics, participate in daily rounds, and participate in family updates with sensitivity and clarity. The role emphasizes professional growth through exposure to diverse pathologies, coding preparedness, critical care protocols, and opportunities to collaborate with specialists in pulmonology, cardiology, and trauma services. You’ll have the chance to refine your leadership, mentorship, and decision-making skills as you guide less experienced team members and contribute to unit quality improvement initiatives. Our benefits package is designed to be competitive and meaningful : a strong weekly pay range of $1,960–$2,106, with the potential for a bonus, housing assistance to ease your transition, and extension opportunities that reward consistency and excellence. You’ll also enjoy travel support, potential stipends, and additional programs designed to maximize comfort and focus during your assignment. Importantly, you’ll receive 24 / 7 support while traveling with the company, ensuring you have reliable assistance, clinical liaison access, and responsive troubleshooting whenever you need it, so you can concentrate on delivering outstanding patient care.

The company values your career and your well-being. We are committed to empowering your professional journey by providing pathways to advancement, ongoing education, leadership opportunities, and a culture that prioritizes a respectful, collaborative, and inclusive work environment. You’ll be part of a network that recognizes achievements, supports skill enhancement, and respects the diverse experiences you bring to the bedside.

You’ll find a workplace that encourages curiosity, resilience, and teamwork, with resources and relationships in place to help you grow beyond the bedside and shape the future of critical care.
