Travel Registered Nurse ER Job

Embark on a pivotal ER nursing opportunity as a Registered Nurse specializing in Emergency Medicine, based in Elizabethtown, New York. Beginning 03/05/2026, you will deploy into weeks-long assignments that test your clinical acumen, reward your decisiveness, and expand your expertise in a high-performing emergency department. This role is designed for professionals who thrive under pressure, collaborate across disciplines, and view every patient interaction as a chance to make a lasting difference. Beyond the immediate impact in patient care, the position opens doors to explore the remarkable landscapes of New York State—from the Adirondack mountains and pristine lakes to the Hudson Valley’s historic towns and the tranquil shores of nearby Finger Lakes—with the added possibility of working in a network that values mobility and professional growth across locations nationwide.

Elizabethtown offers a welcoming, close-knit community that blends the comfort and safety of rural life with access to a broader regional healthcare system and outdoor adventures that refresh the mind and body after demanding shifts. The area rewards outdoor enthusiasts with seasonal splendor—breathtaking autumn foliage, winter sports on nearby trails, springtime wildlife experiences, and summer days on lakefronts that invite reflection after a busy night in the ER. Yet for nurses seeking variety and broader clinical exposure, the program provides opportunities to serve in different sites across New York and across the United States, delivering experiences from urban trauma centers with fast-paced acuity to rural EDs where rapid assessment and decisive action define patient outcomes. Such diversity enriches your professional portfolio, sharpens critical thinking, and strengthens your ability to tailor care to diverse populations while maintaining the personal touch that defines excellent nursing.

In this role, you’ll lead triage assessments and coordinate timely, evidence‑based interventions that stabilize patients in the critical first hours of care. You’ll implement protocols for trauma activation, chest pain pathways, stroke identification, sepsis screening, and rapid disposition decisions, collaborating with physicians, advanced practice providers, radiology, and the multidisciplinary team to optimize throughput and patient safety. You’ll manage medication administration, monitor hemodynamics, and participate in debriefings after critical events to identify opportunities for improvement. Your growth within emergency medicine will be supported by structured mentorship, ongoing skill enhancement, and access to specialty tracks such as pediatric emergencies, toxicology, or trauma care. The role emphasizes leadership among staff, including onboarding new nurses, guiding students or trainees, and contributing to quality improvement initiatives that affect care standards hospital-wide. The position offers competitive benefits, including a signing bonus, housing assistance, and extension opportunities designed to deepen your ties to the organization and broaden your scope of practice. A core element of the package is comprehensive, around‑the‑clock support—24/7 assistance from the travel program to help with credentialing, scheduling, housing logistics, and on‑site adjustments as assignments evolve. Because guaranteed hours are variable (0.0), the schedule is designed to align with patient needs, while the weekly pay remains competitive, with earnings presented as $2,384–$2,553 per week as you navigate various assignments. This structure allows you to chart a path that honors both professional ambition and personal priorities.

Our values center on empowering you to grow, learn, and lead in a supportive environment. The organization is committed to fostering career advancement through transparent pathways, access to continuing education, and mentorship that respects your experience and ambitions. You will join a culture that prioritizes safety, teamwork, and open communication, where your insights shape patient care strategies, workflow improvements, and service delivery. A diverse, inclusive workplace ensures every nurse’s voice matters, and your professional development is woven into daily practice, feedback loops, and formal growth plans. We believe in recognizing achievement, encouraging experimentation within best practices, and supporting you as you expand your repertoire of emergency medicine competencies.

If you’re ready to answer the call to serve communities across New York and beyond, this is your chance to join a resilient, forward-thinking team that values your expertise and champions your progression. Apply today to explore a path where clinical excellence meets exploration—where every shift reinforces your impact, every location broadens your horizon, and every colleague contributes to a culture of care that defines the best in emergency nursing. This is more than a job—it’s a doorway to lasting professional relationships, meaningful patient outcomes, and a career that evolves with you.
