Contracted
University of Vermont Medical Center- UVMMC
Mid Level
Embark on a rewarding journey as a Registered Nurse in the PCU, based in Burlington, Vermont, where every shift offers the chance to influence patient outcomes during critical moments and to grow within a specialty that challenges and inspires. Picture yourself delivering compassionate care in a fast-paced but supportive environment, collaborating with a skilled team to guide patients from acute stabilization toward recovery. And when you’re off duty, you can savor Vermont’s scenic beauty—from the shimmering shores of Lake Champlain to the rolling Green Mountains and the vibrant fall colors that transform the landscape into a living postcard. This role is an invitation to apply your expertise where care meets community, with purpose that extends beyond the bedside.
Location benefits abound in Burlington and across Vermont, a region beloved for its picturesque waterfront, thriving farmers markets, and easy access to outdoor adventures. Working in Burlington means enjoying a lively arts scene, diverse dining, and a community that values work-life balance. Vermont’s natural playground—hiking trails, kayaking on tranquil waters, and scenic drives—offers restorative escapes after meaningful days at the bedside. For the adventurous professional, there’s also the opportunity to travel to various locations across the United States, expanding your clinical repertoire while maintaining a base in a welcoming New England city. You’ll gain exposure to a spectrum of patient populations and healthcare environments, enriching your skills and enriching your professional story as you explore new communities and build lasting connections with colleagues focused on excellence in care.
In this PCU nursing role, you’ll handle a comprehensive range of responsibilities that challenge your critical thinking and amplify your impact. Key duties include continuous patient monitoring, telemetry interpretation, and timely administration of IV medications with meticulous assessment of hemodynamics and respiratory status. You’ll participate in rapid response readiness, collaborate closely with physicians, bedside nurses, case managers, and rehabilitation teams to develop and revise individualized care plans, and communicate clearly with patients and families about diagnoses, treatments, and expected outcomes. You’ll have opportunities for professional growth within the PCU, including skill diversification, specialty certifications, and pathways toward higher-acuity opportunities should you choose to advance. The package is designed to attract and retain top clinical talent: a competitive weekly pay range of $2,450 to $2,456, plus a bonus that recognizes your expertise and contributions, housing assistance to ease transition logistics, and flexible extension opportunities to tailor your assignment length to your goals and preferences. You’ll enjoy thorough onboarding, clinical mentorship from seasoned PCU leaders, and ongoing education resources to support certification maintenance and skill refinement. To further bolster your experience, a dedicated travel support team is available around the clock, ensuring you have the guidance and backup you need, no matter the hour or the assignment location.
Company values center on empowerment, collaboration, and a genuine commitment to your career advancement. Our culture prioritizes a supportive work environment where your voice matters—from everyday patient care decisions to long-range professional planning. We invest in our staff by providing robust resources, transparent communication, and opportunities to broaden clinical competencies. The emphasis is not only on delivering exceptional patient care today but also on building a resilient, thriving nursing career for tomorrow. You’ll join a community that celebrates your strengths, supports your development, and encourages you to pursue new roles within the organization that align with your evolving interests and professional objectives.
Ready to take the next step? This is your invitation to join a company that values your clinical expertise, supports your growth, and champions your well-being while you impact patients and families in meaningful ways. If you’re drawn to a role that blends the beauty and vitality of Vermont with the challenge and variety of PCU nursing—along with the potential to explore other U.S. locations—apply now and start shaping your trajectory in a setting that respects your dedication and ambitions.
