Embark on a transformative journey as a Registered Nurse in Labor and Delivery, bringing compassionate, evidence‑based care to mothers and newborns in Fort Defiance, Arizona. This opportunity places you at the heart of a dedicated obstetric team where every shift offers a chance to impact families during one of life’s most meaningful moments. Lead with clinical excellence, teamwork, and cultural sensitivity, supporting diverse patients through labor, delivery, and the immediate postpartum window. You’ll be part of a program that values precision, empathy, and continuous learning, while you help families welcome new life with confidence. Fort Defiance sits in a region where rugged beauty meets warm hospitality, and your work day will be balanced by the chance to connect with breathtaking sunrises over red rock landscapes, tranquil desert nights, and wide-open skies that invite reflection after demanding deployments. Beyond this location, you may have the opportunity to work in varied settings across the United States, expanding your professional horizons while maintaining a stable, predictable schedule. Start date is 02/22/2026, with contracts designed for weeks of dedicated service and guaranteed hours to support your planning and well‑being. The pay reflects a competitive weekly range of $2,667 to $2,747, with a commitment to 36 hours per week, giving you both financial predictability and time for personal growth. Location Benefits Fort Defiance offers a unique blend of community, culture, and clinical opportunity on the Navajo Nation. You’ll work alongside seasoned obstetric teams in a setting that emphasizes patient-centered care, family engagement, and culturally competent practice. The arrangement also opens pathways to assignments at partner facilities across the U.S., allowing you to broaden your skill set with exposure to diverse patient populations, practices, and technologies. When you’re not delivering exceptional patient care, you’ll have access to the natural beauty of northern Arizona—scarlet canyon walls, open plains, and ample opportunities for hiking, stargazing, and visiting nearby cultural landmarks. The combination of a supportive community, robust clinical resources, and the chance to explore new locales makes this role uniquely rewarding. Role Specifics and Benefits Key responsibilities include managing labor and delivery processes from admission through postpartum care, continuous fetal monitoring, assessment of labor progress, timely recognition of deviations, and rapid coordination with obstetricians and anesthesia. You’ll perform triage, monitor maternal and fetal well‑being, assist with cesarean sections when needed, support neonatal resuscitation protocols, provide patient and family education, and maintain accurate documentation in accordance with hospital standards. The role offers meaningful opportunities for professional growth within Labor and Delivery, including skill refinement in high‑risk obstetric scenarios, patient safety initiatives, lactation support, and leadership pathways as you gain experience and mentorship. Benefits include a competitive compensation package and a coveted sign‑on bonus, housing assistance to ease transition, and meaningful extension opportunities that allow you to lengthen your impact with trusted teams. Our program is designed to support stability and progression, with the possibility of contract extensions that align with your career goals. A dedicated travel support team is available 24/7 to assist with credentialing, housing logistics, shift coordination, and on‑the‑ground assistance, ensuring you can focus on delivering excellent care while traveling for assignment. You’ll also benefit from comprehensive clinical resources, continuing education opportunities, and access to evidence‑based practice guidelines that empower you to advance in perinatal care. Company Values Our organization is grounded in empowering staff to grow professionally while maintaining a supportive, inclusive work environment. We believe in recognizing your contributions, investing in education and skill development, and fostering a culture of collaboration, safety, and patient‑centered care.
