Description

American Traveler is offering a traveling RN Telemetry assignment in Shreveport LA

Job Duties: Telemetry RN

RNs in telemetry nursing jobs use high-tech equipment to monitor patient conditions and progress. Tele nurses typically take care of patients recently released from the ICU who are often at risk for developing complications; these nurses, therefore, must be able to take appropriate action when problems arise. Common conditions that require telemetry nurses include cardiac surgery, renal failure, COPD, sleep disorders, neurological problems, epilepsy, and cancer. Duties of telemetry nurses include careful review of the patient's vitals, maintenance of telemetry equipment, administration of medication, and communication with the patient and family. Because patients require round-the-clock monitoring, telemetry RNs often work long hours, night shifts, weekends, and holidays. Consequently, telemetry nurses are in high demand and their wages are above average.

Essential Qualifications
  • All Registered Nurse candidates must have or be able to obtain a valid professional license within the state of practice
  • Proof of eligibility to work in the United States
  • Valid BLS through the American Heart Association
  • Specialty-related certifications are preferred and may be required for specific travel positions.
  • RN positions require at least one year experience in a like setting.
American Traveler Benefits
  • Customized compensation and benefits package
  • Select insurance coverage that suits your needs, including day one options.
  • Opt for paid private housing and utilities or a generous housing stipend.
  • Tax advantage options that can increase your take-home
  • Travel and licensure reimbursements, referral bonuses, continuing education, more.
