Why Join Us?

This travel nursing opportunity offers the chance to practice full-scope perinatal nursing in a supportive, community-focused environment. You'll work as part of a collaborative team in a Level III Trauma Center that serves both residents and visitors to the Lake Tahoe region. The ideal candidate will be comfortable working autonomously, attending cesarean sections, recovering both mother and baby, and may occasionally float to the ER or acute care floor as a sitter. Competitive compensation and the opportunity to live and work in one of the most beautiful locations in the country make this an exceptional assignment.
