Traveling Pool Nurse - PRN - 3rd Shift

American Traveler is seeking an experienced RN for a Med/Surg Telemetry Float Pool position in the Denver/Zone 3 area, requiring a minimum of 2 years of MS‑Tele experience and the flexibility to float across multiple facilities within a 60‑mile zone.

Requirements

Active CO state RN license or Compact (NLC) RN license — must be active at time of consideration; pending licenses not accepted

Current AHA certifications required: BLS, ACLS, and NIHSS — pending certifications not accepted

Minimum 2 years of MS‑Tele RN experience required

Prior neuro experience preferred

Epic EMR experience

Candidate's permanent residence must be at least 60 miles from the Denver city center (the zone's city center) to qualify — a copy of a valid driver's license is required for consideration

Two professional references required: one supervisor from within the last 12 months worked, and one peer or supervisor from within the last 3 years worked, including dates of employment and eligibility for rehire

Candidate may not have been directly employed (full‑time, part‑time, or PRN) by any CommonSpirit, CHI, or Dignity Health facility within the past year; candidates employed PRN through outside staffing firms will be considered

Responsibilities

Float pool position covering multiple acute care hospital facilities within Zone 3, centered around Denver, CO — including locations in Lakewood, Longmont, and Westminster

Float unit covers a wide range of MS‑Tele specialties including Cardiac, Neuro, Oncology, Rehab, Renal, Bariatrics, Ortho, Trauma, and ED Obs

Patient population consists of adults and geriatrics with diagnoses including cardiac, neuro, ortho, oncology, renal, urology post‑surgical, general surgery, gynecology, psych/detox, ENT, and general medicine

Nurse‑to‑patient ratio of 1:5-6 based on acuity

RNs may be asked to float into other acuity levels including ICU (low acuity holds), PCU/Stepdown, and MS‑Tele

Heparin drip titration required

RT equipment including vents, CPAP, and BiPAP present on unit

Charting performed in Epic

Night shift, 12‑hour shifts (7p-7a)

6-9 weekend shifts required per 6‑week schedule

Schedules are released 4-6 weeks in advance; travelers are expected to be flexible to help fill gaps in permanent staff scheduling

Facility assignments follow one of two formats: scheduled at a single facility for the week (with possible intra‑facility floating), or Just‑In‑Time (JIT) assignment communicated 1-2 hours before shift start

On‑call or standby requirements are rare and typically related to low census

13‑week contract

No single home base facility — travelers float throughout all facilities within Zone 3 across a 60‑mile radius from the Denver city center; it is the traveler's responsibility to secure housing that makes this feasible

Orientation consists of approximately 1-2 days with a preceptor; clinicians must be in‑state for the week of orientation even if initial modules are completed remotely

Each unit has a designated charge nurse who does not typically take a patient assignment; night shift charge nurses may occasionally carry a small patient load

Nurse aides are available on the unit

Holiday rotation coverage may be required

All time‑off requests must be submitted prior to the start of the assignment

Any color scrubs are permitted
