Travel Registered Nurse

Job Overview

Embark on a transformative travel assignment as a Registered Nurse in the OR, stationed in Quincy, California, where your precision, leadership, and compassion will directly influence patient outcomes in fast‑paced surgical environments.

Working in Quincy offers a unique blend of small‑town warmth and access to extraordinary outdoor experiences. You’ll enjoy a supportive, close‑knit clinical team and the chance to optimize patient outcomes in a high‑stakes environment.

In this OR RN role, you’ll bring critical responsibilities to life: serving as a circulating nurse and, where appropriate, scrub nurse, ensuring sterile technique and instrument integrity, and supporting the surgical team before, during, and after procedures. Your day may include patient positioning, anesthesia handoffs, tracking implants and supplies, performing accurate instrument counts, and documenting perioperative care with keen attention to safety and quality.

You’ll collaborate with surgeons, assistants, anesthesiologists, and ancillary staff to anticipate needs, mitigate risks, and optimize turnover without compromising patient safety. This position fosters professional growth through exposure to a broad range of procedures and specialties—from general surgery to orthopedics and beyond—while you strengthen leadership, critical thinking, and rapid decision‑making under pressure.

You’ll be supported by a competitive compensation package, including a weekly pay range of $2,504 to $2,626 and guaranteed 40 hours per week, with potential for extension based on facility needs and your performance. Housing assistance, a sign‑on bonus, and potential extension opportunities are available as part of our comprehensive support for traveling OR RNs in California and beyond.

If you’re ready to bring your OR expertise to a setting that honors your skill and curiosity, apply today. This is your chance to join a mission‑driven organization that recognizes the vital role you play in surgical care, offers competitive pay and comprehensive support, and opens doors to ongoing advancement across a diverse network of facilities. Your next chapter starts here—where compassionate care meets bold growth, and your professional development is as important as the care you deliver.
