We are seeking an experienced Progressive Care Unit Registered Nurse (RN) to join a healthcare facility in Great Falls, MT. In this role, you will provide high-acuity, step-down level care to patients who require closer monitoring than a general medical-surgical floor but do not yet meet intensive care criteria.

• Develop, implement, and evaluate individualized patient care plans in collaboration with physicians and the interdisciplinary team
• Educate patients and families on diagnoses, medications, procedures, and discharge planning
• Maintain accurate and timely documentation in the electronic health record (EHR)
• Assist with procedures such as central line management, chest tube care, and arterial line monitoring

Pay range: $1,720 to $2,010 per week.

Travel PCU RN package: $2,010/week (36 hours) = $34/hour taxable + up to $787/week in travel reimbursements if eligible under IRS tax-home and expense rules.

Local package: $48–$54/hour fully taxable ($1,720–$1,940/week for 36 hours).

Overtime paid in accordance with applicable wage-and-hour laws and the assignment agreement. Actual compensation varies based on hours worked, assignment terms and travel reimbursement eligibility.
