HOT JOB: SUPER-FLOAT MULTI-SPECIALTY RN – ICU/ED/MED-SURG (FORT DEFIANCE, AZ)

I am fast-tracking applications for two highly adaptable, multi-specialty Float Pool Registered Nurses. This is a 13-week contract at a premier tribal health facility located on the Navajo Nation in Fort Defiance, Arizona. This unique role is specifically tailored for elite float nurses or returning contractors capable of moving seamlessly between critical care, emergency, and inpatient floor units.

POSITION QUICK-FACTS

• Start Date: 09/01/2026 (13 Weeks)
• Openings: 2 Positions Available
• Shift Schedule: High flexibility required. Shifts are a mix of 8-hour and 12-hour schedules covering both Days and Nights. Must be open to variable shifts, weekends, and holiday coverage as dynamically needed by the facility.
• Selection & Orientation: Formal orientation begins on Mondays only. Note: Missing the strict compliance document deadline will automatically push your start date to the following Monday.
• Systems & Charting: RPMS EHR.
• Housing Logistics: Dedicated housing guidance and program documentation are available directly within the portal's facility documents section.

THE CLINICAL MATRIX

• The Environment: A 50-149 bed acute care facility serving a vital indigenous community.
• The Role: This is a true "Super-Float" position. You will report directly to the House Supervisor at the start of each shift for local deployment based on real-time hospital census and acuity.
• Clinical Footprint: Must be fully competent to take a complete, independent patient assignment across four distinct sub-specialties:
  1. Intensive Care Unit (ICU / CCU) – High-acuity critical care.
  2. Emergency Department (ED) – Acute emergency stabilization and trauma.
  3. Adult Medical-Surgical – Routine acute care floor management.
  4. Pediatric Medical-Surgical – General pediatric floor care.
• Secondary Float Scope: In addition to primary patient assignments, you may occasionally be deployed to other departments for task-oriented support (e.g., executing specialized tasks, covering breaks, assisting with call lights, or answering phones) based on competency.

SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS (HARDSTOPS)

• Experience: Minimum 3+ years of dedicated acute care experience. Your clinical background must explicitly reflect consistent, proven experience in all three primary domains: Emergency Room, Intensive Care, and Med-Surg/Pediatrics [HARDSTOP].
• Licensure: Active, unrestricted state RN license must be active and in-hand at the time of submission. (Valid Compact/Multi-State licenses are accepted under federal facility guidelines).

• Certifications: Active American Heart Association (AHA) BLS, ACLS, PALS, and TNCC certifications are strictly required at the time of submission.
