Picture yourself delivering evidence-based obstetric and gynecologic care, partnering with seasoned physicians and midwives, and shaping positive birth experiences while enjoying the pristine coastline and village warmth of Machias.

Location Benefits:
Machias is a beacon of New England hospitality, where outdoor adventures abound and medical services are rooted in community trust. You’ll enjoy a manageable patient mix in a supportive environment, with access to fresh Atlantic air, spectacular sunrises over the water, and the restful pace that helps you recharge between complex cases. Maine’s medical teams emphasize collaborative practice, evidence-based protocols, and patient education that empowers families. For those who love to explore, the versatility of this program means you can broaden your horizons with assignments in other states, experiencing diverse communities, hospital settings, and patient populations—while returning to the familiar comfort of the Machias region when you wish. Whether you’re a Maine local or a newcomer, you’ll find the region’s calm cadence complements the intensity of OB/GYN care, making it easier to deliver excellent outcomes while maintaining work‑life balance.

Role Specifics and Benefits:
As an RN in OB/GYN, you’ll be an integral member of the obstetric, gynecologic, and perinatal team. Your daily responsibilities may include initial patient assessments, triage, labor and delivery support, postpartum recovery, and coordination of care with obstetric physicians, nurse midwives, and allied health staff. You’ll monitor fetal well‑being, administer medications, assist with procedures as scoped, perform necessary documentation, and provide patient education on prenatal nutrition, warning signs, lactation, and newborn care. You’ll be trusted to advocate for safe, compassionate births and to contribute to discharge planning, follow-up appointments, and family counseling. The role offers meaningful professional growth—opportunities to deepen expertise in high‑risk obstetrics, perioperative care, ultrasound-assisted assessments, and peri‑natal education, with access to continuing education and mentoring within a supportive network.

Competitive benefits include a competitive weekly pay range of 2,702 to 2,765, a sign‑on or performance bonus package when eligible, and housing assistance to ease your transition into a new community. You’ll also have the option for contract extensions, enabling steady career progression and longer-term relationships with the hospital teams you support. You will never be alone on the road: 24/7 dedicated support from our travel program ensures you have reliable help, resources, and guidance whenever you need it, whether you’re on assignment in Machias or visiting a partner facility elsewhere in the country. While you travel, you’ll have access to comprehensive benefits, including health coverage, retirement options, and paid time off where applicable, all designed to protect you and your loved ones during every phase of this journey.
