Job DescriptionStep into a rewarding journey as a Registered Nurse in Med Surg, anchored in Westwood, New Jersey. This role blends clinical expertise, compassionate leadership, and hands-on patient advocacy to elevate recovery, streamline care transitions, and support families during challenging times. Starting 12/29/2025, you’ll enter weeks-long assignments designed for flexibility and growth, with opportunities to advance into leadership, specialty certification, and cross-site collaboration. Your daily work will span comprehensive patient assessments, wound care and infection control, post-operative monitoring, electrolyte management, pain control, mobility coaching, and discharge planning, all carried out within a dynamic Med Surg environment that values evidence-based practice, teamwork, and patient dignity. As you answer this call to care, you’ll discover how your expertise directly improves outcomes and strengthens communities. Beyond the hospital, New Jersey unfolds its own beauty: quiet shoreline towns, lush parks, vibrant historic districts, and access to world-class dining, arts, and cultural experiences. Westwood’s convenient location offers the best of suburban comfort with easy travel to major metropolitan centers, providing you a balanced backdrop for professional and personal growth. Working in Westwood places you at the heart of a thriving healthcare corridor in New Jersey while offering the flexibility to explore fellow facilities across the United States. The opportunity to rotate through multiple departments or partner facilities lets you experience a range of patient populations and clinical challenges, from high-acuity med-surg cases to transitional care and post-acute settings. You’ll appreciate the supportive networking that comes with a national program, including streamlined onboarding, standardized practice protocols, and access to a wide referral network. This mobility also means exposure to diverse patient demographics, innovative care models, and a richer professional portfolio, as you build confidence handling complex surgeries, chronic illnesses, and rapid changes in patient status. The ability to work in various locations across the U.S. is designed to broaden your clinical perspective while maintaining a stable, NJ-based home base for weekends and seasonal preferences. In this role, you’ll deliver compassionate, patient-centered nursing care with a focus on safety, accuracy, and timely communication. Key responsibilities include conducting thorough initial and ongoing patient assessments, implementing individualized care plans, managing IV therapies and medication administration, monitoring vital signs, recognizing subtle shifts in condition, coordinating with interdisciplinary teams, and educating patients and families about treatment plans, recovery milestones, and safe discharge instructions. You’ll mentor junior staff, share best practices, and participate in quality improvement initiatives that strengthen clinical outcomes. The position provides competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $1,304 to $1,432, reflecting the value you bring to high-volume med-surg floors. We offer a robust set of benefits designed to support you and your loved ones, including a competitive sign-on bonus, housing assistance, and opportunities for contract extensions. While the program offers flexible assignment lengths, it does not guarantee a fixed minimum number of hours, allowing you to tailor your commitments to your personal objectives and energy levels. A dedicated support team is available 24/7 to assist you as you travel with the company, ensuring you always have a reliable point of contact for travel logistics, clinical guidance, and emergency needs. Our commitment to you goes beyond a single placement. The company champions your professional growth by facilitating specialty certifications, continuing education stipends, and structured pathways to advanced responsibilities within Med Surg or adjacent disciplines. You’ll encounter a culture that values initiative, resilience, and collaboration, with leaders who invest in career advancement supported by mentorship, regular feedback, and a transparent path to expanded roles. The environment emphasizes a balanced, respectful workplace where patient outcomes matter as much as staff well-being, and where your ideas can influence practice improvements, patient experience, and operational efficiency. You’ll find a community that celebrates interdisciplinary teamwork, values your expert judgment, and recognizes the impact you make on patients during every shift. If you’re ready to elevate your Med Surg nursing career while enjoying the benefits of working in a supportive, forward-thinking company, we invite you to apply. This is your chance to contribute to meaningful patient care, explore diverse clinical settings across the country, and grow within an organization that genuinely values your expertise and professional development. Embrace a role that respects your skills, provides ongoing learning opportunities, and places you at the center of compassionate, evidence-based nursing.
