The Role

Join the cardiac telemetry unit for 12-hour night shifts (7:00 PM – 7:00 AM).

  • Work collaboratively with monitor techs, PCTs, a unit clerk, and a 24/7 charge nurse
  • Float to stepdown and other units as needed, within your skill set

Requirements

  • Current RN license
  • BLS and ACLS (AHA) certifications required
  • Proficiency in cardiac strip interpretation
  • Ability to work every other weekend (Friday–Monday for night shifts)
  • Occasional on-call may apply if census is low

What We Offer

  • 36 guaranteed hours per week
  • 13-week contract
  • Self-scheduling with block schedule accommodation
  • Brief orientation: one day computer training, one day floor shadowing, then independent practice
