Travel Registered Nurse PCU Job

Embark on a meaningful journey as a Registered Nurse in Progressive Care Unit (PCU) in Cumming, Georgia, where every shift offers the chance to elevate patient outcomes through expert clinical care and compassionate guidance. In this role, you’ll blend the precision of step-down monitoring with the warmth of patient education, guiding individuals recovering from acute events toward stability and independence. Your hands will help normalize vital signs, interpret telemetry, administer medications with accuracy, and collaborate closely with physicians, wound care specialists, case managers, and families to create clear, proactive plans. The impact extends beyond the bedside: you’ll empower patients to participate in their recovery, reduce complications, and support smoother transitions from hospital to home, all while advancing your own clinical acumen in a dynamic PCU environment. Georgia’s diverse landscapes—from the foothills of the Blue Ridge to tranquil lakes and charming towns—add a uniquely enriching backdrop to your professional life. When you have downtime, you can explore Amicalola Falls, outdoor trails, or the regional arts and dining scenes that make this state vibrant and welcoming.

Your assignments will be thoughtfully scheduled to align with your preferred rhythm while guaranteeing meaningful hours. The program is designed to maximize your professional development while ensuring you feel supported, valued, and connected no matter where your travel takes you.

Role specifics and benefits are crafted to promote excellence and professional advancement. As a PCU RN, you’ll perform comprehensive patient assessments, monitor post-acute trajectories, and manage hemodynamic stability while recognizing subtle changes in condition that require timely intervention. You’ll coordinate care with multidisciplinary teams, interpret telemetry and lab results, administer medications with precision, and document care plans that reflect best practices and patient-centered goals. Education for patients and families will be a core focus, helping to demystify diagnoses, discharge planning, and home care needs. You’ll also engage in ongoing learning opportunities, participate in quality improvement initiatives, and pursue avenues for specialization within the PCU track. The role offers competitive compensation with a weekly pay range of $322–$332, a guaranteed 36 hours per week, and a start date of 12/22/2025. Duration is listed in weeks, with extension opportunities that recognize consistent performance, reliability, and a collaborative mindset. In addition to base compensation, you’ll have access to a sign-on bonus where applicable, housing assistance designed to ease relocation, and the flexibility to extend contracts for continued growth and stability. Importantly, you’ll receive around-the-clock support from our dedicated team while you travel, ensuring you’re never navigating a new assignment alone.
