About The Position

Embark on a dynamic journey as a Travel Registered Nurse specializing in the Critical Care Unit (CCU) in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, where precision, compassion, and vitality converge to save lives every shift. This is more than a job—it's an opportunity to translate advanced skills into meaningful, measurable outcomes, to mentor teammates, and to grow within a respected critical care program. Visualize yourself stabilizing rhythm, coordinating with a cohesive ICU team, and guiding families through complex decisions, all while enjoying the unique magic of Colorado’s high country. Glenwood Springs offers mountains, hot springs, and an outdoor playground that complements a demanding clinical role with restorative moments between shifts. Location Benefits: Nestled in the heart of Colorado, Glenwood Springs presents a supportive, close-knit healthcare community where high-acuity care meets compassionate service. You’ll operate within a modern CCU framework, benefiting from multidisciplinary collaboration, advanced monitoring, and a culture that honors evidence-based practice. The region rewards perseverance with work-life balance opportunities, easy access to hiking trails, thermal hot springs, and a cozy town atmosphere that makes long assignments feel like a true home-away-from-home. Within your assignment, you’ll also have the chance to explore assignments at other locations across the United States, expanding your professional horizon while keeping a consistent, reliable weekend rhythm and guaranteed hours. While the mountains invite adventure, the hospital environment invites clinical mastery and professional visibility. Role Specifics and Benefits: As a Travel CCU RN, you’ll assume responsibility for the bedside care of critically ill adults with complex cardiovascular, respiratory, and multi-system needs. Your day-to-day duties will include comprehensive assessments, continuous hemodynamic monitoring, invasive line management, ventilator support and weaning, vasoactive medication titration, and rapid response coordination during emergencies. You’ll participate in rounds with intensivists and specialty consultants, implement evidence-based protocols for sepsis, delirium, and sedation management, and collaborate with respiratory therapists, pharmacists, and dietitians to optimize patient trajectories. You’ll support meticulous documentation of status changes, daily goals, and discharge planning to ensure seamless transitions to step-down units or families’ understanding of prognosis. The role offers the chance to contribute to quality improvement initiatives, pursue advanced certifications, and deepen expertise in post-ICU recovery, neurocritical care, or cardiac stabilization as your interests guide you. In addition to clinical duties, you’ll be supported by an experienced team that values teaching, mentorship, and shared decision-making. The position provides 36 guaranteed hours per week, with a flexible assignment length that can extend based on performance and service needs. The compensation package reflects the demands and rewards of CCU nursing in a travel capacity: a competitive weekly pay range of $2,476-$2,588, with guaranteed hours of 36.0 per week.
