Description
Outpatient Behavioral Health Nurse – Local Travel (Temp-to-Perm)
Location: Galveston, TX
Agency: Connected Healthcare
Schedule: Monday–Friday | 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Hours: 40 hours/week (Guaranteed)
Setting: Outpatient Adult Behavioral Health Clinic
Position Overview:
Connected Healthcare is seeking a qualified behavioral health nurse for a local travel, temp-to-perm opportunity in Galveston, TX. This role is ideal for clinicians seeking a consistent weekday schedule with long-term placement potential in an outpatient adult behavioral health setting.
What Makes This Role Stand Out:
- Guaranteed 40 hours/week
- No weekends, no holidays, no on-call
- Monday–Friday, 8a–5p schedule
- Temp-to-perm only with pay increases after just 90 days of permanent placement
- Stable outpatient environment focused on adult behavioral health
Responsibilities:
- Provide nursing support in an outpatient adult behavioral health clinic
- Assist with patient assessments, medication administration, and care coordination
- Collaborate with providers, therapists, and clinical staff
- Ensure accurate documentation and compliance with clinic protocols
- Support continuity of care in a structured, non-acute setting
Qualifications:
- Active RN or LVN/LPN license (Texas or compact, as applicable)
- Behavioral health, psych, or outpatient experience preferred
- Strong communication and organizational skills
- Interest in transitioning from contract to permanent employment
Why Connected Healthcare:
- Dedicated recruiter support throughout the contract-to-hire process
- Transparent pay structure with raises after 90 days
- Streamlined onboarding and credentialing
This is a rare opportunity for clinicians seeking predictable hours, long-term stability, and growth in an outpatient behavioral health setting.

About
Located on the Gulf of Mexico 50 miles west of Houston, Galveston is one of the best seaside destinations in Texas, with over 30 miles of gorgeous coastline. Galveston Island State Park is great for experiencing the seashore, spread over 2,000 acres with beaches, dunes, wetlands, estuaries and ponds. Enjoy a refreshing swim, canoeing, kayaking, hiking, biking, picnicking and birdwatching within the park. One of the top attractions in the city is the Galveston Island Historic Pier, with a nostalgic boardwalk-style amusement park, including rides, carnival-style games and activities. Downtown Galveston hosts art galleries, antique shops, entertainment venues and the five-block Strand Historic District. Wander through the district to admire the Victorian and Greek Revival architecture while enjoying one of the many bars, pubs and waterfront eateries.
