URMC Strong Memorial Hospital
Mid Level
Step into a pivotal role as a Registered Nurse in the Cath Lab, based in Rochester, New York, where your procedural expertise and compassionate leadership translate into life-changing outcomes for patients facing complex cardiovascular care. This multi-week travel assignment, starting on 04/13/2026, invites you to channel precision, judgment, and collaboration into high-stakes procedures, while offering the flexibility, growth, and steadfast support that come with traveling healthcare. In this role you’ll join a seasoned team that values your clinical acumen, your commitment to patient safety, and your ability to guide anxious individuals through the cath lab journey. The opportunity isn’t just a job—it’s a chance to elevate care, deepen your specialty skills, and leave a lasting impact on patients and families who rely on you in critical moments. And as you bring your expertise to Rochester, you’ll also have the option to extend your experience across additional U.S. locations, broadening your professional horizon while keeping your hands-on cardiovascular practice at the forefront.

Rochester offers a compelling blend of professional opportunity and regional beauty. The city is alive with arts, dining, and innovation, complemented by access to the scenic splendor of upstate New York. After shifts, you can unwind along the shores of Lake Ontario, explore the vibrant neighborhoods, or embark on day trips to the Finger Lakes wine region, rolling hills, and picturesque parks. This setting provides the balance travel nursing seeks: meaningful, demanding work by day and restorative, inspiring surroundings by night. For professionals who crave variety, this position also presents the possibility to work in multiple locations across the U.S., expanding your clinical exposure—from urban teaching hospitals to community centers—while maintaining the focus on your Cath Lab specialty. You’ll gain exposure to a broad spectrum of cases, learn new protocols, and build a network of colleagues who share your commitment to cardiovascular excellence.

Role specifics and benefits form the core of this opportunity. As a Cath Lab RN, you’ll support diagnostic and interventional procedures, including coronary angiography, angioplasty with stent deployment, electrophysiology studies, and post-procedural recovery. Your responsibilities span pre-procedure patient assessment, ensuring sterile technique, coordinating with physicians and the nursing team, monitoring hemodynamics, managing medications, documenting critical data, and guiding patients through recovery with clear, compassionate communication. You’ll help optimize room readiness, ensure equipment functionality, participate in quality improvement initiatives, and contribute to rapid, accurate decision-making under pressure. The role also emphasizes ongoing professional growth: you’ll have access to targeted training, opportunities to specialize in transradial access or advanced imaging techniques, and pathways toward leadership roles within the cath lab. The benefits package is designed to be competitive and rewarding—receive a weekly pay range of $2,596-$2,788, with a sign-on bonus and housing assistance to ease relocation. There are extension opportunities that allow you to build continuity with units you come to know well, while partnerships may offer travel stipends and per diem to support your comfort and stability on the road. Importantly, this assignment operates with flexible scheduling and no guaranteed hours; your shifts will align with patient needs and unit requirements, while our staffing teams work hard to place you in assignments that maximize both your experience and your wellbeing. You’ll also enjoy 24/7 support from a dedicated travel coordinator and clinical liaison, ensuring you have real-time assistance, schedule adjustments, and a safety net as you navigate new environments.

Company values underscore every facet of this opportunity. The organization is committed to empowering its staff, providing clear pathways for career advancement, and cultivating a supportive work environment where clinicians feel seen, heard, and valued. Expect mentorship from seasoned cath lab leaders, structured ongoing education, and robust resources that help you stay current with best practices, emerging technologies, and patient-centered care standards. A culture of collaboration, respect, and accountability runs through every shift, ensuring you have the backing you need to perform at your best, even in fast-paced, high-stakes settings. The emphasis on well-being, professional development, and a sense of belonging reflects a fundamental belief that your growth fuels better patient outcomes and stronger teams.

If you’re ready to elevate your Cath Lab nursing career while exploring one of New York’s most dynamic upstate cities and potentially expanding to other locations, this is the opportunity for you. Apply now to join a company that values your contribution, supports your professional development, and stands beside you as you advance in cardiovascular care. Begin a journey that blends clinical mastery, personal growth, and the chance to make a tangible difference in patients’ lives.
