Job description
Progressive care/Telemetry travel nurses work in hospital units that go by various names, such as telemetry units, intermediate care units, direct observation units, step-down units, or transitional care units. These units provide critical care to patients who require constant monitoring for a range of reasons, including recent surgery, heart attacks, congestive heart failure, renal failure, COPD, and advanced cancer. Monitored patients may be those who are progressing from a more critical state to a less critical one, as is the case with post-operative patients, or from a less critical state to a more critical one, as would be the case with patients being prepared for surgery or those with a progressive life-threatening condition. Progressive care/telemetry units have become more common as hospitals experience a shortage of ICU beds, creating more demand for progressive care and telemetry travel nurses. Requirements: active RN license in good standing, BLS, ACLS, and recent Tele experience in a hospital setting. Travel tele nurses earn an outstanding salary! *Many Telemetry travel nursing jobs are available throughout the US including unadvertised jobs that will never get published online.
