Adventist Health and Rideout - Westways
Mid Level
Step into a pivotal role as a Registered Nurse specializing in PACU, where your expert post-anesthesia care ensures safe awakenings, smooth recoveries, and confident discharges for every patient. This contract, launching on 03/30/2026, is designed for nurses who crave both clinical excellence and meaningful, measurable impact. You’ll work within a collaborative perioperative team across multiple surgical services, guiding patients from PACU entry through stabilized recovery, with the chance to refine critical skills in airway management, hemodynamic monitoring, pain and nausea control, and rapid assessment of evolving clinical needs. In Marysville, California, you’ll join a community that values patient-centered care, professional integrity, and continuous learning, while enjoying a schedule that recognizes your expertise and your life beyond the unit. This is a several-week assignment with competitive weekly pay between $1,729 and $1,861, offering you a dynamic role that emphasizes quality outcomes and professional growth in a beautiful part of the Golden State.
Marysville and the broader Northern California region present a compelling backdrop for your practice. It’s a community that blends small-town warmth with access to major resources, hospitable neighborhoods, and a vibrant healthcare network. Living here means you can savor tranquil river views and local parks during downtime, while knowing you’re within reach of Sacramento’s cultural experiences, excellent dining, and easy weekend escapes into the Sierra foothills. California at large is renowned for its diverse landscapes, from forested mountains to pristine coastlines, wine country, and outdoor adventures—perfect for recharging after shifts. For clinicians who want variety, there’s also the opportunity to extend your PACU practice across other U.S. locations through flexible assignments, widening your exposure to different hospital cultures, protocols, and specialties. This means you can grow your clinical acumen while building a broad professional network, all within a state that rewards curiosity and resilience.
In this PACU role, you’ll be entrusted with essential responsibilities that reflect your expertise and bedside judgment. Core duties include continuous post-anesthesia monitoring, rapid assessment of vitals, airway preparedness and management, monitoring for hemodynamic stability, pain control strategies, antiemetic administration, early mobility planning, and comprehensive discharge instructions. You’ll collaborate closely with anesthesiology and surgical teams, document meticulously, anticipate potential complications, and contribute to evidence-based recovery pathways. The position also supports your career trajectory through structured opportunities for specialty certification, cross-training in perioperative services, and mentorship that values your contributions and leadership potential. To complement clinical excellence, the role includes attractive benefits such as a sign-on or performance bonus, housing assistance, and opportunities to extend contracts based on mutual fit and performance. You’ll receive robust, 24/7 support from a dedicated travel team, ensuring resources are available whenever you need them during your assignments.
Our company is built on a foundation of empowering healthcare professionals to advance with confidence. We’re committed to creating a supportive environment that prioritizes your development, recognizes your achievements, and provides pathways to leadership and specialization. You’ll be joining colleagues who collaborate across disciplines to deliver safe, high-quality perioperative care, while benefiting from ongoing education, professional networking, and an emphasis on work-life balance. The culture centers on respect, accessibility, and proactive communication, with a partner mindset that celebrates your voice, your growth, and your well-being as essential to patient outcomes.
