StartDate: 11/23/2026 Available Shifts: 12 D Pay Rate: $2530.00 - $2660.00
This ICU traveler opportunity is based in Taunton, Massachusetts, a historic New England city that blends small-town charm with easy access to major metropolitan areas. Taunton’s central location puts you within convenient driving distance of Boston, Providence, and the Massachusetts coastline, making it ideal for travelers who enjoy urban amenities, coastal day trips, and scenic New England landscapes. The area offers a variety of local restaurants, parks, and nearby shopping, along with year-round community events that make it a welcoming place to live and work. The facility is a well-established community hospital that has served its region for many years, providing a broad range of acute care services. As a traveler in the ICU, you will join a dedicated, collaborative team that values communication, mutual respect, and patient-centered care. Nurses are supported by engaged leadership, respiratory therapy, and an experienced medical staff, creating an environment that allows you to focus on delivering high-quality care to critically ill patients. The ICU cares primarily for adult patients with medical and surgical diagnoses, including sepsis, respiratory failure, cardiac conditions, post-operative care, and other complex critical illnesses. You can expect to manage ventilated patients, titrate vasoactive medications, and oversee multiple infusions while collaborating closely with the interdisciplinary care team. Typical patient assignments are designed to balance acuity and safety, allowing you to practice at the top of your license while maintaining high standards of care. This assignment is for 12-hour day shifts from 7:00 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., 36 hours per week, with every other weekend required. You will work alongside experienced ICU nurses and ancillary staff who are accustomed to integrating travelers into the team. The unit uses an electronic medical record system, and travelers receive orientation to unit-specific workflows, documentation expectations, and emergency protocols. This role is well suited for ICU nurses seeking to broaden their critical care experience in a supportive community hospital environment while enjoying the lifestyle benefits of southeastern Massachusetts. The Taunton area offers an appealing balance of a manageable pace of life, access to nature, and proximity to larger cities, making it an attractive base for travelers looking to experience more of New England during their assignment.
