About the role

The Registered Nurse in ICU will lead and support critical care teams by orchestrating advanced therapies, managing ventilators, and providing hemodynamic support for critically ill patients. Responsibilities also include participating in daily rounds, care planning, and clear communication with families and interdisciplinary teams.

Begin a high-impact journey as a Registered Nurse in ICU, stationed in the vibrant heart of California’s wine country, with a focused assignment in Lodi.

In this role you’ll lead and support critical care teams, orchestrate advanced therapies, and uphold the care continuum for patients facing the most challenging illnesses.

Your expertise will guide rapid decision-making, precise monitoring, ventilator management, and hemodynamic support, all delivered with empathy for patients and families navigating uncertainty.

This traveling assignment starts 03/23/2026, inviting you to engage in several weeks of acute care excellence with the possibility to extend based on hospital needs and performance.

Weekly pay ranges from 1,919 to 1,985, and you’ll see assignment terms like duration measured in weeks with guaranteed hours at 0.0; your specialized skill set is valued every shift.

You’ll join a network that respects your clinical judgment, supports your growth, and encourages ongoing learning while you help shape outcomes in a dynamic ICU environment.

California’s beauty goes beyond the hospital walls. Picture the rolling vineyards and historic charm of Lodi, the nearby Sierra foothills, and easy day trips to Northern California’s coastlines, world-class dining, and cultural experiences. For a traveling nurse, the state offers not only scenic inspiration but also diverse clinical contexts and the chance to connect with communities that celebrate healthcare excellence. And for broader adventures, you’ll have opportunities to work in varied locations across the United States, expanding your professional perspective while you maintain a presence in one of the country’s most sought-after regions.

Location benefits include the appeal of Lodi’s tight-knit community, accessible outdoor recreation, and a favorable blend of housing options near top-tier facilities. You’ll enjoy comprehensive support while you travel—flexible housing arrangements, thorough onboarding, and a dedicated team that keeps you connected to your unit, your schedule, and your well-being. The contract design favors your growth with extension opportunities after each assignment, enabling you to deepen ICU expertise while exploring new clinical environments—from medical centers to community hospitals—across the U.S. This structure supports both patient outcomes and your professional trajectory, letting you build a robust, transferable skill set.

Role specifics and benefits

  • In this ICU RN position, you’ll deliver comprehensive critical care, including continuous patient monitoring, complex medication administration, ventilator and airway management, vasoactive infusions, and rapid response to deteriorations. You’ll participate in daily rounds, care planning, and clear family communications, coordinating with physicians, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, social workers, and case managers.
  • There is a clear path for professional growth: pursue credentials such as PCCN or CSC, engage in evidence-based practice, and gain leadership exposure through precepting new staff on assignments. Competitive benefits include a signing bonus, performance bonuses, and housing assistance to secure comfortable accommodations near your assignment. Extended contracts provide continuity for clinicians who want to deepen ICU specialization and build long-term relationships within healthcare networks. You’ll have 24/7 support from our traveling team—round-the-clock nurse coordinators and clinical supervisors ready to help you troubleshoot equipment, coordinate patient flow, and navigate multi-site care seamlessly.
